Ce Ce Rogers Someday (Atlantic) 1987

One of house music's finest moments. Absolutely beautiful. House was just so soulful in these days. Almost the equivalent of Martin Luther Kings I have A Dream speech, Ce Ce really moves us with this song. Fantastic stuff. The timeless piano and vocal has been sampled many times and to good effect. Liquid's Sweet Harmony was a massive tune back in the hardcore/rave days and so was Urban Shakedown's Some Justice. Possibly the best house tune ever.

Rhythim Is Rhythim Strings Of Life (Transmat) 1987

I only ever had this on the Network label but I'm assuming that this is the original. This was of course Derrick May with his absolute classic 'Strings Of Life' This sounds wicked in any club, anywhere at anytime. The remixes were ok as well from a couple of years ago. You need this record.
