I love you baby!

I'm quite probably risking my credibility here, but who cares.

I really like this track and think it just about deserves it's position on the PCC blog.

Yes, it's as cheesy as hell but it does sound really great and would definitely go down a storm in a club if dropped at the right time.

This track also possibly holds the record for the oldest on the PCC blog with the original Frankie ialli version dating back to 1967 (almost 60 years ago - Wow!).

It was given a Disco revival by Boys Town Gang in 1981 and then Jimmy revamped it as he did with many 80's disco classics.

Come on now, sing a long.... I love you baby!

(Almighty Definitive Mix)

Plenty of Biff!

Jimmy was one of those who often divided opinion and was a touch Marmite.

I've always been a huge fan and have posted several of his great tracks on the blog as his spirit was always very much dancefloor driven.

This one has less of his vocals, but is a cracking mix by Biff and Memphis.

It gets increasingly energetic as it progresses.

Corker of a track!

Jimmy Sommerville - By Your Side 

(The Shining Mix)

Reject all the values of society!

Absolutely fantastic remix by Biff N' Memphis.

Probably not the sort of track you'd play in front of your Mum and Dad, but what a track!

(You have been warned!!)

Completely different to the E-Smooth remix of the same track which is more of a house classic.

This is pumping, pounding, stomping epic monster of a track.

Reject all the values of society!

Jimmy Somerville - Heartbeat 

(Heartbeat II Mix)

How to say goodbye!!

A cracking track this one, very diverse.
It contains a bit of everything, but it still remains a bloody corking track.
It'd still sound great dropped in a club today, that heavy synth breakdown is just tops.
You know it!!

Old vs New?....both awesome!!!!

I've been meaning to post the 12" version of Smalltown Boy for some time, as it is absolutely awesome. You will all know the shorter version, but the full 12" version is just something else.
The whole atmosphere and feel of the track is simply beautiful. It dates back to 1984 but still sounds amazing.
The words are also very deep and I guess that they would have been very inspirational to lots of young men growing up struggling to come to terms with a world that at that time didn't fully approve of their choice of sexuality.
Moving on, I've just come across a fantastic blog which has some of the best new dance music about.
There are lots of blogs out there that just post endless amounts of tracks without really ensuring that the tracks they are posting are absolutely superb dance music gems.
I've always taken huge care in this respect when posting tracks on the PCC blog and to date I've posted getting on 1000 of what are (IMHO) the greatest dance music tracks ever.
Well as mentioned, I've just come across another blog, who also seems to take great care in only posted the highest quality tracks, so please people check it out, you'll be glad you did, the link is below

Unlike the PCC blog which only (usually) posts tracks from those halcyon clubbing days (1987-2000), the Fresh House Tune blog posts all new tracks.
I came across a superb remix of Smalltown Boy from there, which I take no shame in pinching and posting here.
It's a really sensational remix, which keeps all the good bits from the original but gives it a complete update and facelift, with a great bouncing beat, some brilliant piano and a lovely re-worked vocal. It's absolutely top notch.
Old vs. new which is better??
IMHO you just can't beat the original, but this new remix is very, very good.
Old vs. New? Let me know your thoughts.
(In terms of the VW Golf's - you can't beat those old MK II - they were boss in the days!!)

No time for jealousy and lies!

This is the beauty of house/dance/club music with a good remix a crappy tune can be turned into a true club classic.
Just have a listen to this track absolutely quality. A great remix by E-Smoove.
Anyone who likes good house music will love this.
I love that "doo doo doo dooo doo"
Enjoy.
