Amii Stewart - Love Ain't No Toy (1986)

We all know Amii's voice in her disco period of "Knock On Wood" or later in her Italo collaborations with Mike Francis in "Friends" and "Together", this is a bit later and slightly more obscure, from the album "Amii" where she was produced among the other by Giorgio Moroder and in the case of this remix by the Dutch duo Bolland and Bolland, the names behind Falco's "Rock Me Amadeus".

A.S.H.A. - J.J.Tribute (1990)

When, at the begin of the nineties, the "samplemania" exploded and a lot of dance act were using (who borrowing, who plainly stealing) from old tracks vocals from the likes of James Brown, Loleatta Holloway and First Choice (To name a few), this Italian band stand out for originality

using the "Ball And Chain" vocals from Janis Joplin on this Euro House track, at the time there were a lot of mixes around, my favourite is always been this one by Milan-born Joe T Vannelli,

where the electronic drums and keyboards melt with an anthemic acoustic piano and a more reserved saxophone: Class!!!!
