DIVINE - Disco Diva (Megamix) non-stop hitmix



DIVINE aka (Harris Glenn Milstead) (October 19, 1945 – March 7, 1988) was an actor and singer known by his drag persona "Divine". He appeared in several of John Waters' films, including Mondo Trasho, Multiple Maniacs, Pink Flamingos, Female Trouble, Polyester, and Hairspray, as part of Waters' regular troupe of actors known as Dreamlanders. The New York Times said of Milstead's films in the 1980s, "Those who could get past the unremitting weirdness of Divine's performance discovered that the actor/actress had genuine talent, including a natural sense of comic timing and an uncanny gift for slapstick."

In the 1980s, Divine released several dance music records which were club music hits in the United States, Canada, Europe, South Africa and Australia. Divine's records comprised synth-heavy disco music, most of it composed, created, performed, and produced by Bobby Orlando. In the United States, Divine's highest-charting songs were "Native Love", peaking at #21 on the Club Play Singles chart, and "Shoot Your Shot", which reached #39 among Club Play Singles. Divine's early UK releases on the Design Communications label included "Love Reaction" (which many said "borrowed" elements of New Order's big hit "Blue Monday"), "Shake It Up", and "Shoot Your Shot". All of these releases were big gay club hits and minor mainstream chart hits.

The Stock, Aitken & Waterman-produced song "You Think You're A Man" was Divine's most successful UK hit, reaching #16; the song was also a Top 10 hit in Australia, reaching #8 (Due in part to a popular promotional tour in that country which included an appearance on the popular Australian music show Countdown.) Among the material Divine released on the Proto label in the United Kingdom was "I'm So Beautiful" (the follow-up single to "You Think You're A Man"), "Walk Like A Man" and "Twistin' The Night Away".

"BOOM BOOM ROOM" The band started in 1985 and the main members were:

Skid


Andy


Lushi

with help from Charlie Morgan, Ian Trimmer and Martin Hooker. They recorded some demo's and released their debut single on Fun After All Records..... This was 'Here Comes The Man' which became a cult classic and was soon spotted by a few majors. It was in 1986 that they signed to Epic. Here Comes The Man was repackaged and re-released on the general public!

"Here Comes The Man" was a #1 Radio Hit in South Africa, and was featured in an television advert for "Storm Deodorant" during the 80's. The song was also popular in Australia.

Three singles and one LP later they were gone!

WATERFRONT HOME - NEW BREED OF MERMAID (CD ALBUM) 1984 Bobby Orlando Hi-NRG disco

















What a classic now very hard to find released in 1983 on bobcat label ..."hulkamania" is definively a real underground ORLANDO classic...also include "Take a chance on me"...great sellers!

Bobby Orlando was a prolific producer, releasing all kinds of music under different band names, The Flirts being his most famous imprint, and his often displayed flashes of wacky brilliance. This is a great CD, mixing pop, dance, and even 80s new wave into a fun, cheesily kitcsh blend. Listen without guilt. Standouts include "Dancing In Heaven", a pop ditty about a man mourning the death of his two children (!) Viva Brooklyn!

Roni Griffith - Roni Griffith (Album) 1983 Bobby 'O' Hi-NRG Classic




This is not just another disco album. Originally released in 1983, it contains very tuneful songs embellished by the famous Bobby O's excellent Hi-NRG production, as he conjures exciting new sounds out of the synth that still sounds fresh after all these years. Little baroque flourishes in all the right places, while the beautiful Roni's melodious voice fits the songs like a glove. Also, the lyrics are fairly intelligent for a disco release and makes sense in their context. Includes the mega hits, "Love is the Drug" and "Desire", + my personal favourites, "Take Me Out" and "Heart on the Line".
