Rock on--Track 8

I'm posting a tune to commemorate DJ Ang's feedback. Da Ang is my DJ mentor. Together with our crew at Restless Produxns, we rocked many a party. One of the many things he and The Squeak shared w/me is their generosity with their music. These are two peoples who know their tunes and are happy to share it with others. I owe them big --as do many grassroots orgs they've donated their time and skillz to.

Over in the Yay Area, I once returned after a weekend away to find two crates of old skool hip-hop and classics sitting next to my turntables. Suz the Record Fairy decided to pass on just about her entire record collection. I'm still digging and discovering gems, but it's just so...nice. I mean when was the last time someone decided they just wanted to give you a bunch of music? In the spirit of sharing, since everyone who comes by picks up and "aaaawws" about this 45 of Breakout by Swing Out Sister here it is for your enjoyment.

This is a Britpop classic and why they haven't had a statewide "breakout" will remain one of life's big mysteries.

Luna -- Thanks for the post. Looking forward to rocking a party with you in June, and many more in our lifetime. I got the same 45 of Swingout Sister Breakout somewhere myself. I'm going to look for it.

I recall a major stateside breakout of this song. It was in high school circa 1987 or around graduation in 1988?

Great song.

Hey I remember that song too.

Wow, maybe I'm not as unhip as I thought I was.

Who designed the Restless Produxns site?? It's seriously awesome.
