(The funky disco sound of Harlem's P&P Records) |
Cat: (CRCD/LP007) |
 |
'Disco Juice' is a handpicked collection of tracks that came out of Peter Brown & Patrick Adams' Harlem based P&P label and it's associates from the mid to late 70's. Compiled by DJ/record dealer, Nick The Record, who has one of the best 12" single collection in the World, and owns most of the P&P catalogue. This compilation makes the point that disco was very much a street level thing. Many of it's greatest moments came out on independent labels, and were geared primarly towards a marginalised audiance of blacks, hispanics and gays. P&P's music had the classic virtues of the best black American music: funk and soul, a world away from the anaemic generic disco fodder that poured out in the wake of 'Saturday Night Fever'.
