Arrow GRAND 12" , Vol. 3-Updated: Vol.4 Released!

Continuing an excellent series of CDs, Ben Liebrand's GRAND 12 inches, Vol.3 has just been released. A good few tracks on here to own on CD, including a few which I (along with many others) suggested via his website.

Can't wait for my copy to arrive.

Yeap, a very nice selection there, one of this days I may bite the bullet and get all three of this sets, but boy, aren't this cds expensive:o


8.M.F.S.B. - Love Is The Message (11:33)

I recently discovered 2 different (boots?) 12" with remixes, one is from Mr kavorkian(sp) and the second one is very similar by Cuco. They are not bad at all, both concentrating on the instrumental synth only without the 3 degrees

Fox The Fox - Precious Little Diamond (7:27)
This record was really big in Miami, I used to play spin this one everyday for quite a while :o

Robert Palmer You are in my System (Extended Album Mix)(6:00)

Always preferered the version by The System, although this one is very good choice to.

Tavares -Heaven (irresistable Angel Mix) (8:25)

Is this the remix He did in the mid eighties? I just realized only a while ago he's the one who also remixed "Love to Love" and other ones around the same time I can't recall.

Expensive??!!?

This latest one is going for around 20 dollars at the moment. For a quality 4 CD compilation I'd call that cheap!

Well I bought Vol 2. You are right Quinny, the series is well done. It is probably better for new disco enthusiast who haven't started a collection. Most of us here probably have all the songs on these cds. In my case there were one or 2 songs I wanted the 12" version of so I paid the $20.

Well Marky, I used to spin it regularly and it kept the dancefloor full. Very Michael Jackson - Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough so far as overall feel goes. Does that answer your question?

I bought this compilation for several tracks, but my main one is at last I'll own a 12 minute copy of RR EXPRESS on CD. It's worth 20 bucks just for that!!
