I’m going to get some more edits/reworks uploaded in the coming months, starting off with one I did in conjunction with Henry Greenwood, a rework that was getting a major response until the pandemic went and spoilt the party. 

Recorded by Brooklyn’s Linda Clifford for Curtis Mayfield's Curtom label and mixed by Jim Burgess, ‘Runaway Love’ was somewhat overshadowed by her Disco take on ‘If My Friends Could See Me Now’, from the ‘60s Broadway musical/film, ‘Sweet Charity’. Although ‘Runaway Love’ and ‘Gypsy Lady’ were also listed when the album of the same name topped the US Disco chart, ‘If My Friends Could See Me Now’ was very much the lead track. ‘Runaway Love’ however was the choice cut in the R&B realm where, having been issued as a single, it reached #3.

As big as it was in the Stateside clubs I can’t ever remember ever hearing a DJ in this country playing ‘If My Friends Could See Me Now’ – it was all about ‘Runaway Love’ here, which, from the moment the LP came in on import in ’78 the specialist DJs seized upon. It could have been a UK hit, but was only issued on the flip side of ‘If My Friends Could See Me Now’. Besides, it was all about the full-length 12” version, the truncated 7” compromising its wonderful flow and build. The single stalled at #50 – the fact it got as high as that was all to do with the B Side.

To my ears it’s a track that should be as familiar as Rufus & Chaka Khan’s ‘Ain’t Nobody’, but ‘Runaway Love’ is a hidden classic far too rarely heard. This prompted me to team up with Henry Greenwood to put together a DJ friendly rework that retained the song in all its glory, whilst providing a mix in and out and adding contemporary weight to its already infectious groove. I couldn’t have wished for a better outcome, the audience response the proof in the pudding.

The third in a trio of late-‘70s reworks I’ve collaborated on with Henry, following on from Marshall Hain ‘Dancing In The City’ & El Coco ‘Mondo Disco’, which were pressed back to back on limited vinyl as part of the A&R Edits series.

***

I don't know what to do 
You're always on my mind 
I try to keep it cool 
But I feel smaller than a dime 
'Coz when I get out there in a world so unfair 
I don't know what to do 
You are the vicious kind 

I try to give you a clue 
But you don't believe 
And I'm trying to get through 
But you lie and deceive 
But I will show you how your bullshit won't stop me 
And I will give you a clue 
I will make you believe 

You may think I'm ambitious 
And that I don't know the world 
But little man you are vicious 
Around your finger I twirl 
And when you walk outside with your high fashion news 
You think you're so delicious 
You think that I'm just a girl 

So you're gonna watch me make it over 
That big, wide darkness you call life 
And I won't even take cover 
Because dull is your knife 
And when you come at me with your tender words, I swear 
You will never be my lover 
For the rest of this life 
For the rest of this life 
For the rest of this life

"The label with the giant sound is back for release number fifteen, Kojak's the name and edits are the game. Having previously played host to the likes of Nicholas, Maxxi Soundsystem and Al Kent, DJ Ionik's imprint has developed a pedigree for classy edits by players at the top of the game. For release number fifteen Ebony Cuts rolls up to the party, adjusts his tie and puts the champagne on ice. 

Up first under the scalpel is Jesse Gould's "Out of Work", an uptempo disco funk track with filtered guitar matched by a bouncing bassline.  This is one of those bumping disco funk tracks for peak time enjoyment. Ebony Cuts has stitched the vocal and instrumental versions from the original P&P release together and come out of it with a raw funk bomb. Samples are slightly off and bass drums double over each other, but I don't care and neither does Ebony Cuts. A wild disco edit that can hide a shoddy mix, perfect.

On the flipside Ebony Cuts extends Roy Ayers' "Can't You See Me" into a finger clicking, shoulder popping groovathon. Thanks to a subtle restructure of the track, the smooth jazz funk of the original is given some extra dancefloor dynamics, with each instrumental break looped up for full impact. This is the classiest of cocktail disco, the kind of track Dimitri plays while he sips on a white russian."

"Hot new Kojak Giant Sounds release! These never hang around long and there’s no repress!"

- Rush Hour

"Two Ebony Cuts edits /reworks - Jesse Gold's killer P&P driving boogie disco groover gets its beef chunked up , flip for Roy Ayers - 'Can't You See Me' with a more percussive backing groove!"

"名作エディット２連発！！Al KentやKool DJ Dust、Nicholasも作品を残すフィンランドの人気ディスコ/エディット・レーベルKojak Giant Soundsから待望のニュー・シングルが到着！！今回は、1977年にJesse Gouldが名門P&P Recordsから放った名作「Out Of Work」と、近頃再発もされたキング・オブ・ヴァイブスこと大御所Roy Ayersが1978年にリリースしたガラージ/ダンス・クラシックス「Can't You See Me」を、Tropical TreatsやSelfmade Millionaire名義でもお馴染みのハンブルグのネタ師Ebony Cutsがエディットしてしまった要注意な一枚！！オリジナルの雰囲気をダイレクトに伝えてくれると共に、フロアでの機能性も重視された激キラーなエディットが施された問答無用の仕上がり！！ネタがネタだけにフロアを大爆発させてくれること間違いなしの一枚です！！！！"

"オープニングのドラム・ブレイクを引き延ばし、中盤のインストパート→フック→本編と絶妙に再構築されたRoy Ayres「Can't You See Me」のエディットが最高！！

フィンランドのDJ Ionikが主宰するオブスキュア・エディット・レーベル【Kojak Giant Sound】の15作目は、あのSelfmade Millionaireを手掛けていたハンブルグのディスコ・フリークEbony Cutsによる2トラックEdit！

何と言っても注目したいのが「Roy Ayers / Can't You See Me」のエディットとなるB「Can't You See Me (Ebony Cuts Edits)」。原曲ではドラムブレイクから本編へとすぐに入っていくため、殆どの場合クイック・ミックスする事が多かったのですが、このエディットではブレイクが引き延ばされ、しかもそこから中盤のヴァイブ＆スキャット・ソロに至るインストパートを用意し、ループと再構築を交えて、ジワジワとしたビルドアップ感を携えて本編へと持っていけるという抜群の仕上がり！そしてAサイドには、Billy Nicholas手掛けた【P&P】産のブギー/ディスコ・ナンバーJesse Gould「Out Of Work」のエディットで、こちらもインストパートを主軸に、そのドライブ感のあるブラック・ディスコ・サウンドを構築していた、こちらも素晴しい仕上がり。オススメです！"
