Ooooh now... Here we go... - The early SAW work was very impressive - especially their work with the artist O` Chi Brown (not HINRG) - The stuff they did in 84/85 with Divine/Hazell Dean/Dead or Alive was also impressive - but when it got to 1987 onwards it Just seemed they were churning stuff out that was well below standard (Sinitta/Big Fun/Reynolds Girls/mandy Smith etc...)

IMHO, they brought it to the masses. Unfortunately, it's pretty obvious that Hi-NRG is too sophisticated for those masses who, for whatever insane reason, preferred to gravitate towards MC Hammer, Tone-Loc and grunge.

I don't think they killed Hinrg as it were.
The music in the gay clubs slowly changed with the stronger influence of house. Nu-energy appeared. Handbag appeared , which was especially popular in gay clubs like Wild Fruit in Brighton. the main draw back however was that there were not many labels concentrating on Hinrg through the 90's and even today. Don't forget in the 80's we had at least 5 smaller labels doing the hinrg thang whereas now mainly 2.

In my opinion.. Some of the finest SAW work was with HAZELL DEAN/LONNIE GORDON/O CHI BROWN - True classic HINRG/Dance tracks
