As soon as I saw that the Freemasons made a CD of their own, and that it included their own hits 'Love On My Mind' and 'Watchin'', plus their remixes including Grammy-nominated "Deja vu" by Beyonce, "Mesmerized" by Faith Evans", and others, I had to have it! So I bought it from amazon.co.uk since it's an import.
And I was not disappointed!! You want a dance party album for New Year's Eve - this is it, a double CD no less. It also proves that nearly thirty years after its so-called demise, disco music is alive and well. These guys know how to do it right! They even include a cover of a somewhat now-obscure 1969 song by The Flirtations called "Nothing But A Heartache" - a bit hit in Toronto when I was a kid. It flows very well as a mix album, though I would have preferred that it was unmixed.
If you want to hear any tracks, send me a PM. Here's the track listing:
