    Vertigo/Relight My Fire, if classed as one track, has got to be the best example of this IMO.

    Ooooo!!! The "Progressive Instrumental Remix" of this!!!
    It was created to capitalize on the success of the instrumental intro, "Vertigo".

    I was recently blown away by a beautiful 10 minute promo version of "The Player" by First Choice, with a long smooth instrumental intro. This was apparently an original extended version that was never out commercially, like those longer-than-before Salsoul titles that surfaced a few years ago on cds.

    There's also a more expanded version from the 6-minutes-&-something-mix of Gwen McCrae's "Keep the Fire Burning".
    I've heard it once at an online station. On the the regular 12" you hear her voice right from the beginning,
    but in that particular mix she started to rap after a few minutes of instrumentation.

    Give Me A Break - Vivian Vee

    (The Best Part Of) Breakin' Up - Roni Griffith

    Hot Shot - Karen Young

    Love Train - The O'Jays (a little "iffy", as they jump in with the chorus and then go back to the instumental intro.)



    Vertigo was the song I used to compete to get on Dance Fever. Made it to the South Florida Finals, but not the show.

    Not to worry. Nobody puts Baby in a corner.

    Re: Songs with long intrumental intro

    Since it's morning when I'm posting this, these morning music songs with long instrumental intros seem appropriate....

    Loving You Losing You - Phyllis Hyman
    La Vie En Rose - Grace Jones
    American Love - Rose Laurens
    Dancin' helps relieve the pain, soothes your mind, makes you happy again

    The 12" version of T-Connection's "At Midnight" with that drum intro. Nice.

    The Larry Levan remix has the most incredible build up intrumental of any mix of that track I have ever heard That's what was so fabulous about larry when he finally got to the the hook it was like a long awaited orgasm..He was the best at build up.

    . . .and don't forget the ABSOLUTELY elegant intro/buildup to Voyage's "Souvenirs" . . . always gets my toes a tappin' (but NOT like Sen. Larry Craig's :icon_lol:).
