G.B and The Tracks - My kind of Women/Dance to the music - Smash Disco (78) Aptly, we move from a dance themed mixtape (if you hadn't figured it out) to an album titled Dance to the music. Gerry Bribosia who as far as I am concerned released probably one of the worst records I’ve ever heard – Dracula disco(see below) - released the album Dance to the music and the single above through the Canadian label Smash Disco in 1978 under the name G B and the Tracks a year after Dracula disco I actually haven't got a copy of the album i do however have a copy of the single above with the albums self titled track on the B side and on the A side a tune that when I first heard took me on a journey of love and hate and which eventually led to a full blown love affair.
The track My kind of woman, doesn’t exactly typify the cheesy disco you could expect from that period, The first 30 or so seconds of electronic sounds don’t leave you guessing – you know you got a killah record on your hands – then it switches and Mr Bribosia rears his beautiful but annoying head In the form of his vocals, this pisses you off – well it pissed me off the first time I heard it – then after about 2 or 3 minutes of Gerry rambling on about a dancing woman – it switches again, its like the track started all over again but this time it goes on without the vocals and in those 3 minutes is when I fell in love with the track – it does switch again to G B singing but this time he sounds delicious. (Listen to clip below) It’s a weird track and it screams EDIT, lo and behold it has been edited by a few producers out there, but to be honest I haven’t really heard any edits that do the track justice they all cut out the vocals – you need the vocals it’s part of the records beauty (I'm currently working on my edit). br> Click here to downloadApparently this isn't even the killah track on the album its another track called Chicken Stomp - I'm on it. It’s not exactly cheap but there's a copy on GEMM for $40.00 (£30.00) and I’ve seen it sell [the single] for £80.00 in the UK – so bag it quick, that's if it's got you round it's little finger, like it's got me.
