Stelvio Cipriani & Various - Do You Like Dancing? - CAM CML 181 - 1980 Disco Funk Awesomeness!

  What a nice surprise with this one, I wrote it off cause of the cheesy title and because I don't like to dance, haha.  Boy was I wrong, while the majority of the A side is crap, side B is full of Cipriani gold.  Pretty much all the Cipriani stuff from the later CAM's is golden, like "A Wide Range Of Colours" "Rhythmical Movement Vol.1 & 2".  First let me talk about the non Cipriani tracks, A6 "First Family" by Maestosi & Trecca is just amazing beautiful melodic and beat driven, love it.  A7 by Patucchi is a really vibey lounge track.  B6 by Rustichelli is a great spaced out bossa track.  Now to the Cipriani stuff, B1 is spaced out lounge at its finest, B3 is a great bossa track led by piano.  Next are the 2 best songs, B4 "Green Eyed Woman" is a perfect porno funky jam not to be messed with.  Also my favorite "B5 Private Lessons" spaced out disco funk perfectly suitable for porno music.  Totally untouchable, those chord changes give me chills every time, just listen to that punchy stabbing rhythm guitar.  Soundclips ripped from my personal collection and MP3 Trades accepted.

Michael Maller & M.Chadcar-Blended Melodies-CAM CML 105-1975 CAM &MIC GRAIL!

  So you probably know the genius of Michael Maller from Sweet Melodie on Auvidis but you might not be aware of his true masterpiece, Blended Melodies on CAM and France MIC.  This is the kind of library I wish to find every day, great recording, great funk, great chords and melody and amazing analog synth laid on top.  Almost every track is amazing, 7 of which I put on my library best playlist and I am picky about my library best jams, I can go through 30 De Wolfe's and only put 7 on the list.  I own or heard every France MIC record as well and this one is by far my favorite of all of them.  It's hard to choose a couple to share but "Somebody Came" "Once Life" I feel are my favorites.  The later almost sounding like a Dr.Dre sample or something.
  CAM is my favorite label because not only are there so many gems hiding throughout but they've managed to stay off the blogosphere or soulseek, almost keeping them very sacred.  Every time I buy one and finally put the needle on I am completely surprised, one of the last library companies that hasn't been raided.  Even the worst CAM CML will still cost you 30 bucks just cause of the legend and rarity.  I'll post a picture when I finally get my CAM tatoo on my face, haha.  Enjoy the soundclip and hit me up for trades.
