For the past week… I’ve been on a major Tom Moulton kick…
I’ve believe it started listening to The O’Jays “Backstabbers”… original version… while grooving, I recalled an extended version I had heard some point in the past… and went searching… not truly sure if it was imagination or reality…
It was reality… the extended version was done by the Father of the Remix… Thomas Jerome Moulton… aka the brother in the picture above…
After playing… see: jamming to… the remix version… I went on a Tom Moulton binge over the weekend…
This morning, after watching an interview he gave about his “Tom Moulton’s Philly Re-Grooved” albums… a song by Finishing Touch, a group I had no clue about… was highlighted… Tom’s partner in the project stated it had a sound varying from the rest of the disco soul album… more of a funk soul groove… with interest piqued… I rushed to YouTube and tracked down “Don’t Put Me Down”…
I hope you enjoy it… as much as did…
Friday… look out for a 5 Things: My Favorite Tom Moulton Remixes At This Moment…
