ReelSoul & Groove Junkies [2023] - It Seems To Hang On (Groove N' Soul Classic Vox) [MoreHouse Records]


A release we alluded to last week on another version of the song by Germany's Andy Bach, that was forthcoming at the time, was a set of new mixes of Ashford & Simpson's "It Seems To Hang On" by Reelsoul & Groove Junkies.

It is now out on 19 Jun and comes with four mixes (full, radio, reprise and instrumental) of the song and features vocalists Tertulian Thomas and Mijan who are on the sleeve made to look very similar to Nick and Val.

I'm afraid from our perspective it adds nothing (except a faster house tempo) to, and we much prefer, the original. Compare for yourself as we've (again) included the unexpurgated 1978 12" Ashford & Simpson version along with the 2017 Tommy Musto Re-Touch.
