Perfecto Records were riding
the crest of a wave in ’96 with a succession of wondrous trance-tinged releases
from artists and producers such as Grace, Jelle Boufon, BT and Tilt. ‘Give Me
Strength’ surfaced in the late spring as the anticipated follow-up to Jon
Pleased Wimmin’s first and best-known production ‘Passion’. ‘Give Me Strength’
is a pounding number encapsulating Oakenfold’s vision for his label, and is
augmented by the presence of Sister Bliss on co-production duties. Vocals come
courtesy of Bliss’s label-mate Penny Shaw, whose operatic warbling graced two
of my favourite Cheeky releases – ‘Give Me Life’ by Mr V and the legendary
‘Love, Love, Love’ by Rollo Goes Mystic.

Strength (Slammin’ Mix)
Great track. JoPW was one of the best DJ's on the circuit circa 1993/94. I had many an enjoyable night listening to his sets. Top jock!! Shame about the attire!!
