Long ago in another life and career, I was a disco DJ in New Orleans, playing at The Parade on Bourbon Street, The Civic Disco and later as the first in-house DJ at Cafe Lafitte’s on Bourbon Street. There was a small disco record shop called Disco Connection near the French Quarter. The owner, Chuck, used to get a lot of imports and was generally several months ahead of the Billboard charts and even the coastal disco scenes in getting unusual, hard-to-find music to us local DJs. I wish I had proof of it, but I bought this record from him and was the first DJ in New Orleans to play it. I’m also told I was the first DJ in the country to start playing this on a regular basis. Other DJs said they couldn’t get their hands on a copy of it, including some who dropped in to hear me play at The Parade. I do remember getting it charted on Billboard. Can’t make this stuff up!

[@papotetuve]

Wow... greetings. I was a DJ too and guess what... I still have my technics turn table. But yours is quite a story

[@fernandovazquez4396]

Was the Disco Connection located at the Esplanade at Bourbon? as I remember when I was a teenager, I always spent half my check (working as a dishwasher at a restaurant in those days) on the shop! I remember they had LPs imported from France, West Germany or Italy! I remember grabbing a copy of this masterpiece as well!

[@39Soares]

i LIKE TOOO MUCH THIS MUSIC,I REMENBER THE PAST,,,,..........

[@pchris3437]

I was wondering who this group is. Because everytime I pull up a Cerrone song, this song shows up. So I looked on Discogs and the members are Cerrone, Don Ray and others. I thought so. I have this Album when it 1st came out. Luv It!!

[@petercoenen4663]

No doubt Cerrone is behind this. It sounds just like him. I discovered Kikrokos from a sample track on a Polydor compilation album and first thing going thru my mind when I heard it was ... this is Cerrone! It's also no doubt powered by Alec Costandinos, who was involved in the early Cerrone albums.

[@konczwasc]

Catchy classic disco melody and deep bass line. Precious.

[@jesusmendez1385]

Ese disco al igual que The Hustle de Van McCoy fueron los iconos de la musica disco.

[@MrLatinmuscl]

I love the fact that someone who I also love a lot is a back up singer on this album. You'd never guess tho you can make out her voice if you just listen close enough. Ready ? It's Lene Lovich ( if you have the album just look at the singers listed)

[@ptownfreddy]

Lene also co-wrote an excellent disco album the next year, Michelle Freeman’s “Tumble Heat,” produced by Don Ray.

[@terryplatt]

I'd not come across this one before, until I saw it on the Papayons CD website, and liked the sleeve, so I decided to see if it was on YT. I love the disco music of that era, even though I'm mostly a pop and rock fan. What strikes me immediately upon first hearing is how similar this music is to the great Voyage (Souvenirs, From East To West, Let's Fly Away, etc.) The female vocalist could easily be Sylvia Mason. The evocative sound of that sparkling, euphoric time of Eurodisco is all over this disc. Thanks for posting this, Euroduo!!

[@EddioPinaR]

+terry platt Yes you´re right. Slim Pezin from Voyage and also Marc Chantereau are on the guitar and Keys

[@karimemiranda6136]

@@EddioPinaR Yeeessss...Marc Chantereau and Andre "Slim"Pezin of Voyage....Marc...excellent musician...genius of keyboards¡¡¡ beautiful..¡¡¡ 😘😘❤💖

[@arlfred0508]

What an absolutely wonderful song!!! I miss this music so much and I wish with all my heart it would come back. Thank you so much for putting this fantastic song on KZbin!!!

[@dbgvk68]

OMG! I still have this album! I LOVE KZbin! Thank you so much for posting this!

[@PedrolimaOliveiraLimaFilho]

THE BEST@@@@@@@@@@

[@MrChristian]

Hearing this today for the first time (AUG 2021). Very EuroDisco in the Cerrone/Voyage vein. I wonder if this was a radio hit in any country, and where? Or maybe it was strictly a club track

[@petercoenen4663]

Agree! Definitely sounds like Cerrone/Costandinos. I'm sure it was a one off project by them. Never heard it anywhere. Discovered the track on a Polydor sampler LP. This is one of my all time favorite euro disco sounds ever!

[@eenergy540]

Dirty channels brought me here

[@donaldburt1078]
