Saturday Night Band [2023] - Come On Dance, Dance (Dave Lee Remix) [Unidisc Music]

A huge disco hit for Saturday Night Band back in 1978 who were a Prelude Records studio band who released two albums and two singles. Their vocalist was Lorraine Johnson who is probably best known for her cover of Teddy P's "The More I Get, The More I Want" a year earlier on Prelude.

Jesse Boyce (previously of Bottom & Co.) and Moses Dillard (who were in a duo together as Dillard & Boyce) wrote most of their songs. They also recorded as Constellation Orchestra, Frisky and Juice around the same time, each releasing just the one album with little commercial success apart from "Come On Dance, Dance" as Saturday Night Band which peaked at #70 R&B in 1978 but made it to #16 on the UK pop chart in July 1978.

Dave Lee has just done four mixes of "Come On Dance, Dance".

Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes [2022] - Don't Leave Me This Way (Dave Lee Philly World Mix) [Epic]

It's a pretty sad state of affairs for new music, on the hottest day of the week for new releases, when one of the prime releases of the day is a remix of a song that is nearly 50 years old! It was originally released in 1975 as Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes featuring Teddy Pendergrass in a vain attempt to get Teddy to stay with the group but he eventually left soon after this song charted in UK in 1977.

I don't believe that it was ever released as a single in the US and was eventually a UK #5 pop hit in 1977. Thelma Houston covered the Gamble, Huff & Gilbert song on Motown at the same time and they both ran concurrently on the UK Top 20 with Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes peaking at #5 on 26 Feb 1977 and Thelma Houston at #13 on 5 Mar 1977.

The song was on "Wake Up Everybody" which would be the last album Teddy Pendergrass featured on. The album version is just over six minutes and Dave Lee has extended it to nearly eight (7:54) on his new Philly World Mix which was a bonus 12" track on his recent "Produced With Love II" vinyl edition.
