Mmm, does no-one like Freaky Dancing? It's one of my favourite Happy Mondays-records. And in fact I like the b-side "The Egg" even better. Great Production-work by Barney!

Killer track.

I have the original White Label 12".......except I wrote on the white label :nonono: I was young and very fucking stupid!

I knew there was a reason I thought you were like a brother....

I was going to say "Out of Control" but I never knew of Barney's involvement in ACR's "Won't Stop Loving You". So my vote goes there. A fookin perfect pop tune!

As for Technotronic, now you're talking... "Rolling over the melody, rocking over the beat, jumping, jam trip on this (or something)..."

Fannytastic :nod:

I managed to land a copy of Ripe by Banderas recently, after a few copies surfaced mysteriously after being seemingly unavailable for years. I'm sure Bernard and Johnny Marr had something to do with this band but not sure exactly what. anyways some cool songs on there - the comfort of faith, may this be your last sorrow, its written all over my face, she sells, this is your life...

Never managed to find another copy of Freaky Dancin/The Egg, that got left behind somewhere :(

Deffo ACR's "Won't stop loving you" - love the way the beats start and stop, slow down and speed up - brilliant.

Have also always liked Section 25's "Inspiration" the last track on "From the Hip" - contender for the most New Order sounding track not by New Order. "Inspiration" could have fitted right onto PCL no problem.

Having said that Beat Club's "Security" and ACR's "Won't stop loving you" definitely stand out as quality early-90s dance records for me with the 12" mix of WSLY sounding like a stripped back and hypnotic drum machine test; nice one Barney! :nod:

I must say this is my favorite one too. I still remember when i bought the single. I found this small record shop and the entrance was just a staircase with a sign. I went up and looked in the neworder section and found SUB SUB with Bernard Sumner. I thought I would give it a try and it was an excellent choice. I absolutely love the Sub Sub album Delta Tapes it was very adventguard.

I seem to recall that Bernard produced their "This is Your Life" single. At the time, Johnny Marr said Bernard had some guitar bits in mind for the track but talked Marr into actually working out and performing them.

"Out of Control" takes it though. "Won't Stop Loving You" is a great track but Barney's contribution of lyrics/vocals and guitar to the Chemical Brothers track gives it the edge as a full fledged collaboration.
