Release Date

Both of Reappearing Records’ Life And Death On The New York Dance Floor 1980-1983 compilations are brought together in one package here. Accompanying pieces to Tim Lawrence’s book of the same name, the Life And Death ... compilations shine light on one of club music’s most fertile epochs. With disco, house, post-punk and Latin styles combining in the melting-pot of early-’80s NYC, artists such as David Byrne, Loose Joints and James White & The Blacks were making dancefloor fillers as innovative as they were groovy. This set rounds out with ‘Rapper Dapper Snapper’, a seminal jam from the late Edwin Birdsong.
