Earlier this week I was inspired by DJ, producer, Kung Fu aficionado and all around knowledgeable cat, Paul Nice to do a top 5 list of 80’s records that I loved to “catch the beat” to back in my earlier DJ days. The list was inspired by his top 10 so it’s only right that we feature his list hear at Nostalgia King, so heeerrree we go! (in my Slick Rick voice).
#1 Fab 5 Freddy (feat. Beside) – Change The Beat (1982)
#2 Cold Crush Brothers – Weekend (1982)
#3 TD Records – Feelin’ James
#4 Grace Jones – Nipple To The Bottle (1982)
#5 Bozo Meko – Fusion Beats vol. 2 (1980)
Continued list:
#6 Real Roxanne – Bang Zoom (1986)
#7 Alliance – Bustin Loose (1987)
#8 Cerrone – Rocket In The Pocket (1978)
#9 Spoonie Gee and The Treacherous Three – Love Rap (1980)
#10 Al-Naafiysh – The Soul (1983)
*Bonus: Divine Sounds – Do or Die Bed Stuy (1984)
