WHAT JAMES HAMILTON HAD TO SAY ABOUT THIS RELEASE:
WALLY JUMP JR & THE CRIMINAL ELEMENT ‘Tighten Up (I Just Can’t Stop Dancin’)’ (Breakout USAT 621)
Terrific drums thrashed combination of two Archie Bell & the Drells classics (given Janet Jackson’s similarly tempoed ‘When I Think Of You’ bassline now), still better in its 0-116bpm original LP version than the A-side’s disjointed 0-116-0bpm remix although both are likely to be swamped by Jazzy Joyce’s fiercely transformed 0-116-0bpm ‘Lighten Up (I Just Can’t Stop Scratchin’)’ dub mix!
SIDE B: LIGHTEN UP I Just Can't Stop Scratchin' Dub Mix - Wally Jump Jr. & The Criminal Element
REMIXED BY: Jazzy Joyce
LENGTH: 06:47
