Nice and Slow

posted by on November 1 at 16:05 PM

In the late 1970’s French producer/musician Don Ray was involved with many disco projects and artists like Cerrone, Alex R. Costandinos, and Leroy Gomez. Another project that he helped produce was Michele Freeman’s 1979 self-titled solo LP. Ray not only produced the record, he composed, arranged, and played keys on many of the tracks. This solid piece of work seems to somewhat get ignored when it comes to Ray’s musical career and achievements. The record went on to release two 12-inch singles with “Nice And Slow” and “Tumble Heat” that same year, however from start to finish the entire album is full of great disco music. It’s safe to say that this record is just another example of explaining why Don Ray was one of disco’s greatest music innovators.

Also here’s a quick reminder that tomorrow night is another installment of Club Cabana located inside Solo (200 Roy Street, Lower Queen Anne). I will be joined by Kurt Reighley (aka DJ El Toro) to provide you with rare cosmic/italo/sleazy disco all night long for you to drink, dance, and sweat to. Plus we will be celebrating the release of my new 12” single, Club Cabana which just hit vinyl record stores worldwide. Don’t miss out!!!
