The one I've been looking for for years is

Michael McClory - What You Wont Do For Me 1980 -1982

I think I've quoted the Title & Artist correctly

It was listed in the Billboard Disco chart around 1981/82

HELP! HELP! / TU ES! 12' remix (Hansa Records?) - Gilla. Help! Help! is in English, Tu Es! is in German.

I have been searching since the advent of the Internet. My original copy was bought at Munich in 1978, and since has disappeared between moves from San Francisco to Amsterdam. I have searched the used record shops of Cologne, Germany, Amsterdam, Brussells, Paris, and London. To no luck.

I got a copy of Mach's "Party"/"Disco Brake" off ebay a few days ago.

Tried to get Mach's "On and On" but it went for ~$115--out of my range but classic proto-house tune.

Smile Soulful Dynamics -``Did you see my wife?``

Is somebody who knows if this song really exists ?
A friend told me that is extremelly rare to hear or to find it ( to buy),because it was edited in Germany on single-vinyl only.
I`m shure it is their best song,i remember it when i was young and i gone in discoteque every night.
Thanks!

The most difficult for me is ``Did you see my wife``-The Soulful Dynamics.
It was edited to single-vinyl only,(In Germany).
I am desperated to find it, cause it`s there most danced song in discoteques in the `80`s.

Family - Hubert Laws
The Real Thing - Sergio Mendes
Could Heaven Ever Be Like This? - Idris Muhammad (I only have this on french pressing Kudu)


I actually have the original (not the reissue) Motown 12" of Diana Ross'es Love Hangover, but only in vg condition... :-?
well mate there is an album called "Bitter suite" which has the full version of "Family" on it! this came out in the uk around 1980 and was a very good compilation! this was followed by "Second suite" which had "zaius" eddie russ on it.hope you can find one of these albums as they are both very good and have plenty of other classics on them.

I just got this from Amazon...for the "Wachersign" or is it "Whachersign"????--I've seen it spelled BOTH ways...Joel Whitburn spells it "WHACHERSIGN" in his chart books---AND GEMM spells it that way on the 7" single--BUT GEMM spells the 12" w/out the second first "h": "WACHERSIGN" and that's how they label it on the cd.

The best price I could find originally was $31.20; luckily, those folks couldn't fill the order and gave me a credit, so I bought it at a lower price of $23.98 (including shipping, etc.) I'm soooo cheap, I probably think this song is about me.

Only listened to the cd twice, but it's very good...whole lot of unfamiliar tunes...[ I think the only track I already had was Ace Specturm's "Don't Send Nobody Else"]... most of them newer than the P&M track, but all worth hearing, I think.
