Mas Mix Que Nunca - Vol 1 (non-stop italo disco mix) (Various Artists) 1990 [south african edition] "Out-Of-Print" RARE EDITION!
1990 [south african edition]
"The South African release of 'Mas Mix Que Nunca', the famous Spanish italo-disco megamix series, popular in Europe (and around the world) in the mid 80's
The South African Vol.1 is actually the European Vol.2 in the series.
Released in South Africa by "The Works Records" - a cutting edge independent dance music store based in Hillbrow, Johannesburg during the 80's and early 90's."
"When I was a school boy in the 80's, we used to trade cassette tapes with these "Hard-To-Find" Italo Disco DJ Mixes" and be totally amazed by the futuristic synth-dance sounds from artists like KOTO, or blown away by KEN LAZSLO's catchy italo disco beats and melodies!"
Good Times! :)

"The Time Warp" is a song featured in the 1973 rock musical The Rocky Horror Show and in the 1975 film adaption The Rocky Horror Picture Show, as well as a dance performed during the chorus of the song of the same name. The song is both an example and a parody of the dance song genre in which much of the content of the song is given over to dance step instructions. The dance is one of the major audience-participation activities during screenings of the film and performances of the show.
It has become a popular song beyond the reaches of the film and show, and is often played at dances and weddings.
An extended remix version of the song was released in 1989.
"I SEE YOU SHIVER WITH ANTICI..................PATION!"
SCORES 10/10!

ANDY FORRAY "Drac's Back" (Original 12'' Disco Maxi) 1979 cult kinky classic "Out-Of-Print" VERY RARE!!!!
"Drac's Back.....I wanna suck your! ....................
ooohh Dracula!"
"Drac's Back" was a kinky 1979 novelty disco record by British Actor/Singer Andy Forray. The song was a cult underground disco hit around the world!
"I remember first hearing this song as a six year old kid when my parents used to have house parties and braais (Barbecues) in South Africa in the 70's & 80's! I remember the mothers all used to shrill with excitement when this record was played...(on our very loud 1970's "Blaupunkt" Hi-Fi"
which used to overheat, start smoking and occasionally burst into flames!....talk about wild parties!"
"They're easy pickin's at the discothequeI leave them feeling like they've been in a wreck
You know they wake up all wasted
And they never ever check
Those two small holes that I leave in their neck
Well if they were wise They would soon realize
They're not hung over
They're just vampir-ized'Cause
Drac's Back...I wanna suck your..(oooh.. Dracula!) Drac's back...
I went to New York City once to make my mark,
I checked in at the Waldorf in the name of Count Shark.
I used to prowl that city when it was dark
'Til one night someone mugged me out in Central Park
So I had to go away, for many a day
But I'm such a nifty healer that I'm still here to say
Drac's back.. I wanna suck your..(oooh.. Dracula!)
Drac's back..."

(12'' Maxi Hi-Nrg Mixes) 1983
Hi-Nrg Electro Disco Classic 80's

TRACKLISTING:
01 - Mr. Roboto (Edited Version) (4.45) 1983
02 - Mr. Roboto (Hi-Nrg Disco 12'' Maxi Re-Edit) (8.18) 1983
"Mr. Roboto" is a song written by Dennis DeYoung and performed by the band Styx on their 1983 concept album Kilroy Was Here.
The song's chorus features the line, "Dōmo arigatō, Mr. Roboto", which has become a catchphrase.
The Japanese lyrics at the beginning of the song are as follows:
どうもありがとうミスターロボット (dōmo arigatō misutā Robotto) また会う日まで (mata au hi made) どうもありがとうミスターロボット (dōmo arigatō misutā Robotto) 秘密を知りたい (himitsu wo shiritai)
The lyrics translate into English as follows:
Thank you very much, Mr. Roboto Until the day (we) meet again Thank you very much, Mr. Roboto I want to know your secret
The song tells part of the story of Robert Orin Charles Kilroy (ROCK), in the rock opera Kilroy Was Here. The song is performed by Kilroy (as played by keyboardist Dennis DeYoung), a rock and roll performer who was placed in a futuristic prison for "rock and roll misfits" by the anti-rock-and-roll group the Majority for Musical Morality (MMM) and its founder Dr. Everett Righteous (played by guitarist James Young). The Roboto is a model of robot which does menial jobs in the prison. Kilroy escapes the prison by overpowering a Roboto prison guard and hiding inside its emptied-out metal shell. When Jonathan Chance finally meets Kilroy, at the very end of the song, Kilroy unmasks and says, I'm Kilroy! Kilroy!, ending the song.
The robot-like catchphrase was created with a vocoder.

The song heavily features the Oberheim OB-Xa and PPG Wave synthesizers.
Stan Winston designed the Roboto costume and mask, which is displayed prominently on the cover of the album Kilroy Was Here. The track was released as the first single from the album at the last minute instead of "Don't Let It End" at the request of A&M Records.
