“An instantly recognisable disco anthem that always gets the crowd singing along.”
Why I Stock This Record
This is a proper 1980s Disco classic from Gwen McCrae. The standout track “Keep The Fire Burning” is one I regularly play myself when I want an instantly recognisable moment that gets the whole room involved.
It’s got that uplifting, feel-good energy with a strong vocal hook that people immediately connect with. It works brilliantly whether you’re warming up a set or dropping it later when you need to lift the energy and get everyone participating.
If you’re into classic disco or building a strong collection with real anthems, this Expansion release is a must-have for vinyl collectors and DJs alike. Clean copy and plays strong every time.
Review
Yet another reissue of this enduring classic. Legendary Miami songstress Gwen McCrae had plenty of huge hits in her arsenal, from '90% Of Me Is You' to 'It's Worth The Hurt.' Her biggest tune by far is the sure fire dance floor heater 'Keep The Fire Burning.' The strident disco funk beats, the soaring vocal and the impossible warmth and soul of it all never fail to make a mark. Here it is backed with the more slow and deep cut funk of 'Funky Sensation,' which gets those hips swinging and hands clapping.
