John Morales is a New York remixer whose name one sees on countless records from the 1980s. Everything from Inner Life's I'm Caught Up In A One Night Love Affair, Class Action's Weekend and Aleem's Hooked On Your Love to Lime's Angel Eyes and Monyaka's Go Dea Yaka so you know he's versatile in his mixing skills.
During these mix sessions John would make several different mixes of the tracks he worked on. Morales has kept all these rare mixes in his home studio for more than twenty years. When I interviewed him for DiscoMusic.com a few years ago, he showed me all these reel-to-reel goodies and my jaw just dropped. Why hadn't anyone released these rarities? Well, the wait is over as the British label, BBE has finally given John Morales the respect he deserves by releasing the two-disc set; John Morales - The M&M Mixes. The selections are great and taken directly from John's masters so the sound from what I've heard on this disc are very good. Can't wait to actually hear the full two disc commercial pressing in January!
This single disc promotional CD featured here contains selected highlights from the final double compact disc, which will contain a total of nineteen (19) tracks and be released in early 2010.

Nov 27, 09 | 11:02 pmI've read that the complete 21 track release will be available @Amazon on this tuesday December 1, 2009.
I'm patiently waiting!!

while the original extended remix of Ain't no mountain high enough by Inner Life is some kind of a masterpiece, the included 17 minutes JM 4am remix is rather boring the same.
