re-issue of three killer rare tracks - g.a.n.g. s >kkk< is a much sought after italo disco cut from 1983, an amazing deep and tripped out electronic instrumental disco track, >my boss< from linda di franco, produced by don was, is an incredibly rare balearic piece from the mid 80 s that was featured on harvey s >sarcastic mix<, finally >octagon< by onyx is a druggy, spooky, mid tempo electronic synth track that was only ever previously available on a rare 7inch single

mindless boogie brings another 3 tracker edits bundle which sidesteps the obvious in favour of a more psychedelic approach. lead track >joe who< revisits >joe walsh - county fair<, but is completely re-arranged into an atmospheric instrumental. first track on the b-side is a re-edit of >faith healer< by >the sensational alex harvey band< with a lot of additional production. theres even an acid line! next on the b-side is a slow and sexy track originally by saint-tropez. why this hasnt been sampled yet and turned into a huge r&b hit, remains a mystery.
