Rhetorical Rapture

Another Italian stomper of mysterious provenance, ‘And I’ll Be There’ was issued in the UK on FFRR’s commercial arm FFRREEDOM in late summer 1995. Unabashedly cheesy in its original form, the track benefited from a blistering rework care of Undiscovered label-mates LWS, who famously released the harmonica-infused ‘Gosp’ in 1994. This track might well prove insufficiently underground for some palates, but the phenomenal nature of the breakdown and attendant elongated vocal cannot be denied. ‘And I’ll Be There’ is a little-known gem that exudes the ‘fun’ of Italian commercial house, a genre which seldom took itself too seriously. Apparently, Antonomasia is a figure of speech used in rhetoric, quite how that concept relates to the track at hand is a bit of a mystery.

Here's one for the Handbag House followers!!

It was always a bizarre tag "Handbag", but as a music genre, I really loved a lot of the tracks which were classified in this category. 

There were always really energetic, full of life, and generally very uplifting, pretty much the type of music which was widely played in clubs like Vague and Paradise Factory and other gay clubs. 

They were probably too "camp" or "kitsch" for the purists, but lets be fair there were some absolutely corking tunes which came under that category.

This is one such track. A bit trashy, but catchy as hell and very uplifting, with some great breakdowns - "Let, Let, Let, Let, Let, Let, Let me hear you Stomp!!".

Music pigeon-holing has IMHO always been a load of nonsense and categories were names of convenience drawn up my music magazine editors. 

Let's face it good music is just good music.

Handbag or no handbag this is a corking track!!!
