Working with founding member Tony Henry, the label is honored to present a reissue of 52nd Street's crucial debut single Look Into My Eyes\/Express. Originally released on Factory Records in summer 1982, this 12\" is a double-sider in the truest sense -- unrivalled Manchester jazz-funk-boogie-soul. Both \"Look Into My Eyes\" and \"Express\" came out of a five-day recording session in the spring of 1982 at Revolution Studios in Cheadle Hulme, just outside Manchester. Rob Gretton had just signed the band to Factory, snatching them from under the noses of RCA and WEA Records, who had been sniffing around and seemingly ignoring Tony Wilson's concerns that Factory might not be the right home for a black soul act. The band, were put in the studio with A Certain Ratio's drummer Donald Johnson producing the sessions. The band also found themselves with an interesting new member; the finished record credits synth and F\/X to a mysterious \"Be Music\". Turns out that's Bernard Sumner. Henry explains that bringing Bernard in was another part of Gretton's plan, \"Barney was a real soul boy at heart and had always wanted to produce and work with black artists -- with 52nd Street, he was an honorary member\". \"Look Into My Eyes\" is a strutting, rich, soul-gliding piece of funk with bass and guitar high in the mix above twisted, bubbling synths, like Nile and Barney drenched outside the Haçienda that first summer. The hypnotic, naïve-cum-insouciant vocals from Beverley McDonald only add to the track's charm. On the flip, \"Express\" is sheer drama on wax -- all bold keys, synth brass blasts, insistent bells, and a galloping groove giving *that rush* atop a bassline to die for -- blistering heat. The 12\" was Paul Morley's single of the week in the NME but his approval did little to get daytime radio play or to sell the record when it was released. \"Look Into My Eyes\" and \"Express\" come from a chapter of the history of Factory Records that no-one seems to have gotten around to writing. Working with Tony to reissue the original 12\" is the start of putting that right; the story of 52nd Street is more than just a footnote.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Y_CAXRTJEXQ?si=ajEheHA5770dzjrY\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e","brand":"Passenger Seat Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42924195512515,"sku":"457982H","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0637\/5011\/1427\/files\/52ndStreet-LookIntoMyEyes_Express.webp?v=1725388184"},{"product_id":"79-5-79-5","title":"79.5 - 79.5","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"tralbumData tralbum-about\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFormat : LP\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tralbumData tralbum-about\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tralbumData tralbum-about\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLabel : Razor N Tape Reserve \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tralbumData tralbum-about\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tralbumData tralbum-about\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCatalog # : \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRNTR058\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tralbumData tralbum-about\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tralbumData tralbum-about\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eGenre : Neo Soul\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tralbumData tralbum-about\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tralbumData tralbum-about\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e79.5 is the sound of New York City.

Disco beats and exotic drums dance, prismatic pads and soft synths seek the stars, piano and guitar sing a spaced out blues, and amidst the moving grooves and deep swinging jams, moments of beauteous balladry emerge to touch the spirit. Carlo Fontana's work is further testimony to a courtly and sophisticated musical aesthetic in vogue in Naples (and surrounding areas) between the 70s and 80s which had as its main proponents and protagonists exceptional musicians such as Joe Amoruso, Tony Esposito, Pino Daniele, Elio D'Anna, Enzo Cervo and many others.

Originating as an Army band after the Nigerian Civil War they led the wave of upbeat music produced by young artists in Nigeria in response to the darkness of the recently concluded civil conflict. Following a notable hit single ‘Akula Owu Onyeara’ the band split in 1977 and Harry pursued a solo career.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e‘Peace \u0026amp; Harmony’ was Harry’s third LP continuing the rich vein of form found in previous albums ‘Country Boy’ and ‘Funkees’ (For You Specially). He was a visionary who wrote, arranged and produced each song on the LP assisted by Mark Lusari on engineering duties (P.I.L, Jah Wobble \u0026amp; Prince I), whose Reggae and Dub influence can be felt on title track ‘Peace \u0026amp; Harmony’ and ‘Peaceful Dub’. The LP contains two certified floorfillers of Studio 54 era Disco Funk in the shape of ‘Sexy Dancer’ \u0026amp; ‘Step On’ and two slow jams, the soulful ballad ‘She’s Gone’ and horn lead album closer ‘Do It Together’. Mr Funkees was printed on the cover to help record buyers make the connection between Mosco and his former band.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ciframe style=\"border: 0; width: 400px; height: 340px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=1020877584\/size=large\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=0687f5\/artwork=small\/transparent=true\/\" seamless\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/harrymosco.bandcamp.com\/album\/peace-harmony\"\u003ePeace \u0026amp; Harmony by Harry Mosco\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e","brand":"Passenger Seat Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42924250464451,"sku":"784677Q","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0637\/5011\/1427\/files\/Harry_Mosco_-_Peace_Harmony.jpg?v=1737606403"},{"product_id":"honey-machine-honey-machine","title":"Honey Machine - Honey Machine","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eFormat : LP\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eLabel : Mondo Groove\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eCatalog # : MGLP112\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eGenre : \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/passengerseatrecords.com\/collections\/african\"\u003e Africa\u003c\/a\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/passengerseatrecords.com\/collections\/funk\"\u003e Funk\u003c\/a\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/passengerseatrecords.com\/collections\/Nigeria\"\u003e Nigeria\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eAnother Boogie-Funk records repress for the 1st time.

They released a string of acclaimed reggae LPs and toured extensively throughout the UK, but by 1985 wanted to try something away from their trademark roots reggae sound. Influenced by the availability of affordable hardware the band set about fusing Reggae and Soul using an Akai Drum machine, Yamaha DX7 and Roland sound module. ‘She Wants’ is one of the forebearers of UK Street Soul, raw machine drums paired with an incredibly soulful vocal from Ashley Sommers. The band created their own imprint ‘Mixdown’ to release the single, but it slipped under the radar, despite strong radio play from Choice FM and the then pirate station Kiss.

In \"Praja Magia\", repetitive mandolin riffs lead the song, giving space to a choral yet tight vocal line that speaks of Varcaturo, a village close to Napoli. In \"Rire\", a volley of poetic, deceptively laidback, lyrical fury interpreted by Sicilian Marco Castello intimately combines with a highly musical, multi-textured instrumental backbone and the swoon of a chanson in its heart. In \"La Crisi'', the lyrics of a Raffaele Viviani’s poem from 1930 have been adapted to a laidback jazz-funk groove in full NG style. In \"Vesuvio\", revaluing the evocative verses and powerful mantra of Vesuvio, Nu Genea re-adapted to the dancefloor a folk song by the working-class band E’ Zezi from Pomigliano D'Arco, combining the voices of a school choir with Jupiter-6 arpeggios and bold percussions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBar Mediterraneo is the place where people constantly return to transform curiosity into participation, tradition into sharing, unfamiliar into familiar.

Don't sleep on this winner!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBorn in 1952 in Yaoundé, Cameroon, Francis Mbilong, would go on to lead an exciting and diverse career all across West-Africa. From a very young age at the behest of a family friend, Francis studied harmonium, clarinet, saxophone, and many other instruments. He would eventually funnel most of his talent into the guitar, on which he would write the majority of his body of work. After releasing several recordings under myriad band names during the 1970s, Francis went on to form his longest-standing outfit, Revelation; a name under which he has released recordings as recently as 2020.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the time of the release of Love Affairs  by Revelation in 1981, Mbilong would spend most of his time gigging in a club called Phoenicia in Lagos, Nigeria. He preferred the ambiance of a luxury night club to the regular clubs in Lagos, and gigging there afforded him the privilege of sitting in on jam sessions when acts like Kool \u0026amp; The Gang, or Bob Marley were in town. Altogether his career was storied and multitudinous, and was made possible by his immense talent as a musician. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLove Affairs contains within its seven tracks, a heady, deep, soulful approach to boogie that is seldom tapped by other recordings of its time. Mbilong's careful and disciplined approach to songwriting sets this album in a tier elevated from the usual four-on-the-floor disco routine. Each song is more engaging than the last, and each pocket respectively deeper. Revelation serves a familiar live-off-the-floor energy with the precision and soulfulness of a group of musicians who are as comfortable with each other as they are talented. The infectious rhythms on this album are the stuff of earworms and dancing is mandatory. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e\n\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/sMK1MYyqvY8?si=bSAo9fJOkbmkj_8i\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e","brand":"Passenger Seat Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42924304761027,"sku":"9378904","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0637\/5011\/1427\/files\/revelation_LoveAffairs.jpg?v=1735761013"}],"url":"https:\/\/passengerseatrecords.com\/collections\/funk.oembed?page=8","provider":"Passenger Seat Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
