David Mancuso has passed away. Love Saves The Day. RIP to a DJ Legend.

shout out to dave.  i saw him play at a loft party in london. i'd known this record before but he really made it sing on his hi-fi system.

this is a just a great mix of records. chilled out songs build into clever house that still rocks a party. 

from the head gardener at the secret garden party.

Proper celebratory record this. Was played frequently by Levan and in 1977 (written in 1975) must have been one of the first openly gay disco records.

I left before they came on unfortunately. It was too busy and was taking too long to get drinks.

Harvey next week. This was so good I had to get it sent from New York.
