Touch Me Where It’s Hot

posted by on October 23 at 14:33 PM

In 1980, Peter DiMilo and George Cucuzzella’s disco outfit, Erotic Drum Band, released their second LP entitled, Touch Me Where It’s Hot on Prism Records. This record was recieved with mixed reviews and poor record sales compared to their debut album, Plug Me To Death. Even though fans of this heavily percussion influenced disco group were somewhat disappointed by the band’s follow-up release, the Touch Me Where It’s Hot LP wasn’t a complete bust. One of the few highlights off of this record, in my opinion, is the solid disco anthem classic “Everybody Get Dancin’”. This solid lp cut could be my favorite of all the Erotic Disco Band tracks. Where their first LP, Plug Me To Death is more solid than their follow-up as a whole album, “Everybody Get Dancin’” seems to be a better song than any individual tracks on both records. I agree that outside of this one track, Touch Me Where It’s Hot is probably mediocre at best, however, in a period where many disco LP’s consisted of only four or five tracks at most, one classic cut could make it worth it to own the entire LP. And because of that, Touch Me Where It’s Hot still makes a nice addition to anyone’s disco record collection.

I bought that same record at Jive Time maybe 2 or 3 years ago! For some reason, it took me years to figure out how to mix it into a set without totally wrecking—something about it's rhythm or its EQing always threw me.

Well, this is lame, but that was meant for the other disco 12" post of the day. My bad.
