仏Favoriteからまたまたメガレアなディスコ12"がリイシュー!

オークランド産のマイナー・ミドル・ディスコ!今の時代にマッチし過ぎなさわやかなキラーがオフィシャル・リイシューです。ただならぬジャケットもソソリます。

Darondoの初期の楽曲も手掛けたというLeroy Smithレーベルオーナーがひそかに運営していた「Pashlo」レーベルの秘宝! 10タイトルに満たないリリースのみで、その多くは7インチシングル、というソウル・ファン大興奮のレーベルですが、このKarriemは唯一12インチでリリースされ、その素晴らしい内容からDJを中心に高く評価されてきた1枚でした! 待望のリイシュー!

Favorite Recordings proudly presents this new official single reissue of I Love You by Karriem: A very rare soulful mid-tempo disco killer, originally released in 1979 on Pashlo Records.

Pashlo Records was based in Oakland and owned by producer and musician Leroy Smith, who is also known for his Ocampo Records’ imprint, where he produced and recorded the very first songs from Darondo. The label had quite a short life between the middle 70s and early 80s, producing only singles from mostly unknown and forgotten artists.

Amongst them was this brilliant and obscure release by Karriem, very hard to find in its original version. Unearthed again in Charles Maurice’s collection, and officially licensed to Leroy Smith, it’s today reissued on vinyl for the first time, presented by Favorite Recordings in a deluxe version, housed in a classic tip-on jacket.
