WILLIAM STUCKEY - Disco Fly
This track is hard enough to find on an original 12 inch...so to spot a copy on 7" had me buc whilin'.....some serious

Always been a favourite party record of ours simply for the fly-like and spacey dance rhythm, and the reaction the drums ALWAYS get from an appreciative crowd. Plus not forgetting the electronic "whoooosh" sound over the drums. Released in 1977 on the ICA label it has recently been re-issued on 12" vinyl for the beat heads, and no doubt a bargain for those who don't want to cut up their prized $100 dollar vinyl.
Get down with your bad self!
JESSE GRESHAM PLUS 3 - The Penguin pts 1&2
Now if you want a record that has a drum break longer than a hot minute...then this could be the baby you have been looking for.

you could wish for, then the sleazy suggestive bassline drops in to set the groove. But the treat is still to come.....at the end of part 2 GRESHAM PLUS 3 drop down again to just the bass and drum and rocks us again for a second time. What more could you possibly want? First brought to the attention of UK break heads on the classic UK break beat LP "SKOOL BEATS" if our memories serve us correctly EDIT: actually it was LONDON BEATS 2. Another b-boy favourite from 1965 on the JEWEL label.
ALICE STREET GANG - Brasilian Hustle
Now this one is strictly speaking a straight-up disco cut from 1976 on

QUILLER - Theme from the BBC TV Series - Richard Denton & Martin Cook
I feel we may be going O/D on B-Boy drums today...but hey that's why Hip Hop started in the first place right??

QUILLER was a 1970's drama series on BBC TV, about a Spy who is a highly skilled driver, pilot, diver, linguist and martial artist. He would never carry a firearm, reasoning that if he was ever caught, anything he has on him could be explained except a gun. This BBC-TV series first aired in 1975 and ran for 13 episodes, but more importantly had an amazing drum break in the theme music. This 45rpm single is not that hard to track down being that it is on the famous and well distributed BBC Record label - keep your eyes peeled at your local charity shop and this will turn up.
Enjoy the beats...
