"In the early 90s, the dance cover re-make was super popular with the CD buying public.
People wanted their favourite pop/dance songs which they previously owned on Cassette and LP on CD format, and welcomed newer sounding 90s dance productions.

A mountain of CD dance compilations were released, with tracks licenced around the world.
You would usually find a few "stand out" playable tracks on each of these compilations, and they sold in well.  

I few years ago, I posted VOLUMES 1 - 2 & 3 in this Series
Thank you to Disco Lover for sending in this one - Volume 4!
Posting now to complete the DANCING UNDER THE COVERS series"

ROY GARRETT & MAN PARRISH - HOT ROD TO HELL (1982) LP electro Underground 80s EXPLICIT! "RARE WEIRD Avant-garde ELECTRONIC


 

VERY RARE UNDERGROUND KINKY ELECTRO ALBUM from 1982

Roy Garrett born Roy Samber in Newark, New Jersey arrived in New York City hungry to explore the sex and porn scenes he’d seen advertised in the Village Voice’s classified section. He danced in Times Square theaters The Gaiety, Ramrod, and Big Top before moving into adult film. From 1979 through 1983 Garret starred in ten films, five of them for Joe Gage, including his lead role in ‘Heatstroke’. 

Throughout this period of self-discovery, he wrote the suite of 48 poems that became ‘Hot Rod to Hell’. 

In 1982 he recorded and self-released the poems on cassette with haunting, atmospheric score by Man Parrish, who also did several soundtracks for Gage. The project was produced for the stage by Manhattan illu

strator Robert W. Richards who calls ‘Hot Rod’, “a searing voyage through the labyrinths of modern male sexuality; its geography ranging from porn theaters to back room bars to the intimacy of shared beds. Only a man born at exactly the moment in gay history that Garrett was could have lived through and conceived this work.” Roy Garrett tells his stories of sex, violence, truth, and illusion, as visceral and personal a record as any of that moment in gay history pre-AIDS. Joe Gage, describes ‘Hot Rod’ as, “…sweet danger.

 This is a perceptive look at the underside of love. It is funny, scary, surprisingly moving and best of all, extremely acute in observing the specifics of the human condition.” By April 1992, Garrett would succumb to AIDS-related illness, aged just 37. All poems have been carefully remastered for vinyl by George Horn at Fantasy Studios in Berkeley. The records come housed in a jacket designed by Gwenael Rattke and includes an 44-page full color magazine with all 48 ‘Hot Rod’ poems plus 44 previously unpublished poems from Garrett’s archive. All proceeds from ‘Hot Rod’ will be donated to Housing Works, a New York City based non-profit fighting the twin crises of AIDS and homelessness.

notes:
An interesting Underground LP produced by ELECTRO producer MAN PARRISH, released in the same period as "Crusing The Streets" by Boys Town Gang (1982) and obviously a massive inspiration for MAN TO MAN MEET MAN PARRISH (Male Stripper) - the massive Hi-NRG electro dance hit from the mid 80s
