Catalog Number: ITG2001

Larry Levan. Gwen Guthrie. Sly & Robbie. Wally Badarou. You just can’t beat a team like that; these five artists have together accounted for thousands of classics that you’ll still hear on dancefloors today. Though the grooves here are largely built by the Compass Point production team, it’s Paradise Garage legend Larry Levan that provides the magic touch on these “special mixes” commissioned by Island Records. Over 34 minutes, Larry realizes his futuristic vision of the dancefloor with extended grooves, arrangements, synth embellishments, and his signature “house” style mix treatment. Essential!
