 L.A.X Fans! JUSt found a relatively good copy of their debut "Under Cover Lover" today (sadly, NOT the DJ only double pack!!! but like I would in Toronto eh?). Great to finally have the 7 minute version of "Dancin At The Disco"!!! I know "All My Love" was bigger" but for me, nothing beat "Dancin'..."for sheer late-era disco goodness! The intro is moody and the woman singin "Let's make love tonite...underneath the disco lights..." makes this tune classic. Too bad the chorus makes the song a little on the dated side....dunnof I could ever play it somewhere without feeling a tad guilty!!! :oops: Hope this siong hasn't fallen through the cracks and some people out there enjoy it!!! PS-I also got a copy of Paradise Express's 12" "Dance" and Grace Jones "Muse"!!! Good shopping trip for me!  |

| L.A.X. FrontPage22, congratulations on your L.A.X. finds and others. I enjoy my L.A.X. album. The lady on the cover of mine is not wearing any clothes. But I meant I enjoy the music. But I didn't mean I hate the cover. usagi-san |

| Nice to see some love for L.A.X....and no, the woman on the cover is (shock...!!!) naked except fors ome stylish boots, good eye makeup and a ponytail. A classic disco LP cover if you ask me... :) |

| I always liked "Dancin' At The Disco."...I even have the 12" on MP3 on my computer. I always enjoyed the lead singer's line about "we're gonna have big fun".  There's never anything wrong with big fun.

| I mean vinyl. There aren't a lot of places in this city that sell disco on vinyl... Monster is near where I live. They don't have much, but I have found a few interesting things there. Recently I picked up the Barrabas LP for $8, which is a lot less than what Cosmos wanted for it. :) |

| Also try Paradise Bound on August Street, south of College near kensington...excellent little stash of disco and a few 12" singles (I bought Grace's "Fame" there as well as Paradise Express' "Dance"/"Poinciana" 12" single in it's wrapping there) |

| I was at Cosmos last night and they have the 2x12" edition of "Under Cover Lover" for $10. However, it only has 5 tracks. |

| Cosmos is on the south side of Queen W, just east of Bathurst. This is the place to go in this town for funk, disco, jazz, and soul. Only thing is, they can be very expensive (example: debut Lowrell LP for $55). In all fairness, the owner travels all over to buy records, and gets plenty of stuff that we would simply never see here otherwise. The L.A.X. disc in on the bottom shelf, along with the (relatively) cheap LPs. Careful looking at the disco and funk 12"s, they're tempting but beyond my humble means. Thanks for letting me know about Paradise Bound. They aren't in the white or yellow pages, so I wouldn't have known they existed (even though I live a 15-minute walk away from there). Surprisingly good selection given how small the store is. I dropped $100 on disco vinyl there today :) |

| If you took the Supremes disc with High Energy you're sooo not my friend;-) The owner is fab...the only thing is the singles selection could be better. Does Cosmos have a dedicated 12" section??? |
