 Emmett presents... Paternity Leave!
 
Marquez - Color De Caramelo

I will be laying low for a few weeks, due to the exciting and impending arrival of a baby girl. In the meantime, we can all think about what the bass player (= Juan Marquez himself?) does at 01:43 in the jam posted above.

Thanks to all who've contributed so far to the 1993 Project.  By all means keep those suggestions coming!  This playlist will be happening post-paternity leave.

You can also check out Viva Radio shows #143 and #144, which represent a still-unfinished two-hour answer to the thought experiment: "What might have been played in a European discothèque c. 1974?"  Many thanks to all who contributed suggestions in this thread, and most especially to Mr. Bill Brewster.

So, yes, I expect to be hibernating from the music sphere for a bit, but unprecedented and potentially game-changing developments are already in the works for the near future, dear listeners!

Here comes summer again...

Your friend,
Emmett

  4. How could I only forgot "The Sweet"!?

    CoCo

    Wig-Wam Bam

    Block Buster!

    Hell Raiser

    The Ballroom Blitz

    Teenage Rampage

    Though Sweet was big a few years b4anonymus 2 was allowed to go out for the weekends, so that he can't give evidence personally, there's no doubt about it that the aforementioned hits were part of the soundtrack im most mideuropean discoth. in 73/74!
