RUSH / BRING ME UP (7 INCH)
7 Inch
24.03.15
having written the infectious theme song to the chicago party television series, we felt necessary to bring the pianist/composer into the foreground for his own proper two-parter. this very demo of -rush- made it into the hands of charles davis, who re-recorded the tune for a stray single on sutra records in 1982. included on ultra-high frequencies: the chicago party, -you bring me up- is completely unreleased and represents the pinnacle of early 80s r&b from chicago.
CHICAGO PARTY THEME (7 INCH)
7 Inch
24.03.15
by the time james christopher and willie woods set about assembling the chicago party’s pilot installment, jesus wayne was already well established as a songwriter. under his belt were two avi-labeled eps and several song placements for mca, sutra, parachute, and salsoul. for the chicago party theme music, willie woods approached wayne with a seed lyric: we are the party people and this is where we gather. the rest wayne cobbled together in the studio. judging by the lyrics *we ll fill your heart with laughter*, the chicago party may have been intended to be as much saturday night live as soul train. this 45 should be a staple for chicago disc jockeys (locally and abroad), or anyone else trying to replicate the carnival-like atmosphere that proliferated at the copherbox ii and over the airwaves via weekly broadcasts of the chicago party.
