While many of you are still digesting the latest Sequins and Spandex compilation<\/a>, I’ll add this as an additional supplement. \u00a0This particular 7” became a WIERD party favorite towards the end of our tenure and I still break it out from time to time when I DJ, as it never fails to get the party started.<\/p>\n

We kicked off the latest compilation with the 12” version of the track, but here’s a fresh rip of the 1983 7”, complete with the B-side intact. Certain versions of this single have “Nineteen Ninety Three” as the a-side and “Love on the Rocks” as the flip. \u00a0 My 7” clearly has “Love on the Rocks” as the title track (with the cover art below), but grooms the flip for the rightful A-side placement. \u00a0Let’s just call it a double A-side, as both tracks are killer electro\/italo tracks well worth their weight in gold. \u00a0I prefer the dark apocalyptic feel of “Nineteen Ninety Three” overall (written by Arcibaldo aka Antonino Cocco), but the other track is no slouch, and is apparently a more electro-fied cover of Lucio Battisti’s original disco smash “Il Veliero.” Curiously enough, this 7” was released on Numero Uno records, which boasts many of Battisti’s own releases from the late 70s and beyond. There also exists a 12\/7” remix single for “Love On the Rocks” with several versions of that track, but I don’t have those here to rip.<\/p>\n
