STILL SPINNING

Cathedrals D.C. LaRue's "Cathedrals" was released on Pyramid Records in 1976 as a 12" thrusting D.C LaRue onto the disco scene and straight to the top of the R&B charts. In England he became the first white male to attain the #1 position on this chart. This song is so amazing...the lyrics are pretty bizarre and the track itself, musically, is also rather unique. It has loads of interesting sounds and a really solid groove. It's one of those tracks I always pack in my bag when playing out, perfect for bringing people out onto the floor. D.C. LaRue - Cathedrals. 9:51 a.m. Friday 12th June 2009 EST

BRIEF REPLIES - TEN WHEEL DRIVE



This one, too.

I'M A RIDA - 50 CENT



50 Cent sampled some TWD tune - can't remember which, 'cause I hate what he did with it - for "I'm A Rida" which he used on the soundtrack of his video game Bulletproof.

That one we got paid for. Sort of.
