Junei: Let's Ride Vinyl 12"

Boogie grail reissued on 12" for the 1st time! Junei's "Let's Ride" is one of the boogie grails that tops many collector want lists. The track was originally pressed on 45 in 1987 on the tiny Pharaohs imprint and features a distinctive mid/late funk 80's sound filled with soaring DX synth leads, grooving percussion, and slick synth bass. This has been my jam ever since I discovered it on the 2005 Mr. Peabody's compilation, but stoked to have it on proper 12". Also feature the modern funk groover "You Must Go On" on the flipside. Recommended.
