Free Download: Black Box - Ride On Time (Guido Re-Edit)

Black Box's 1989 UK #1 italo disco masterpiece Ride On Time can liven up the dullest of affairs, haha. Something about that insane house piano loop just makes us wanna go nuts in the best way possible! Fronted by tone deaf model Katrin Quinol this single originally sampled Loleatta Holloway's Love Sensation without clearing the rights and she got pissed off and sued successfully for $$$. Thus leading to a re-recording with (uncredited) vocals from Heather Small of M People. The full Dreamland album eventually came in 1990 and featured vocals from Weather Girls Martha Wash, who ended up suing as well as she had been paid to do demo work, not actually appear on the finished album as she did. Wowza! So many people and shenanigans! This re-edit by French DJ Guido Minisky and uses what sounds like alternate vocal takes in parts by Heather Small. We have a hard time typing this as all we wanna do is get up and get d.o.w.n, haha. That extended piano never sounded so good! Enjoy dancin'! PS. All these legal snafus eventually led to a safer environment for musicians as nowadays samples has to be cleared and credited in a much more transparent manner.
