Kon Kan is Canadian super DJ Barry Harris (a.k.a. the man behind Top Kat and one half of Thunderpuss) created quite a stir when he decided to sample Lynn Anderson's old country single I NEVER PROMISED YOU A ROSE GARDEN and add a house/NRG rhythm track. Canada's clubs jumped on this one and it quickly became a club sensation. The US soon followed and Atlantic signed the duo. Soon an album was on its way.
Subsequent singles like HARRY HOUDINI and MOVE TO MOVE (with Harris on vocals) made this debut set a must-have item for sure.
NRG jocks jumped on BITE THE BULLET (a cover version of the THEY NEVER SLEEP single from 1987) and GLUE and FIRE.
Fantastic samples, rapping and tons of scratching ; not to mention 1989-style dance music going all over the map. You also get two 12 inch mixes as CD bonus tracks.
