This is one of my favorite Alton Miller release. My copy is nearly unplayable now... You should definitely hunt down his 12" on Planet E http://www.discogs.com/release/11351, another on Distance (can't recall the title right now - doesn't seem to be listed on Discogs, but I vaguely recall one of the songs was called "Stella's Groove" or something??? - that could be totally wrong. I'm fairly sure it has three tracks, one of which loops up the vocal from Dajae's 'Day by Day'), and 'Pressure Drop' on Fragile as Aphrodisiac is amazing. His latest release on Moods and Grooves was also rather nice, but not quite as dancefloor-useful http://www.discogs.com/release/43128, and I think he did one other M&G before that which has a track called 'Africa' or something. That one was farely nice, but not essential. Tristan ======= http://www.phonopsia.co.uk [EMAIL PROTECTED]
