Italian house producers Micky More & Andy Tee who run Groove Culture
have succeeded in raising the hackles of DJ Kool Keith with their latest
single by Dutchian Soul (aka Niels Schroder from
Amsterdam).
He's alerted me to the new single "Promises" which uses "Keep Smilin'" originally released by Bunny Sigler in 1974 (Philadelphia
International) and then by Gabor Szabo in 1976 (Mercury),
but as they say 'every cloud ...' as it's a good enough reason to post the
two 70s versions to bring them to the attention of anyone not already
familiar with them as they were both only minor R&B hits (Sigler #46 /
Szabor #77).
The Dutchian Soul release is a four tracker which includes "Good Times" which also samples something familiar which sounds like it could be
Loleatta Holloway's "Hit And Run"?. It comes with long and short versions of
both songs and is due out on Friday (30 Sep) but is available now from
Traxsource.
I tracked down a pretty grainy video tape of Gabor Szabo performing it
live in 1977.

I love the Gabor Szabo tune - a jazz funk classic! sadly Dutchican "Soul" have ruined it
