New additions in my record collection: First off, the amazing CD box set "Ultimate Dollar" by eighties pop duo Dollar (Thereza Bazar and David Van Day). Includes all their albums and maxi-singles digitally remastered, including PWL remixes and other previously unreleased stuff. Highly recommended!
I also got the new box set by Italian-American disco and R&B band Change (Jocelyn Brown, Luther Vandross, Deborah Cooper and many more over the years) called "Everything And More (Complete Recordings 1980-2019)". It includes all of their studio albums remastered and featuring rare bonus remixes. Another gem that I strongly recommend for all disco-funk-R&B lovers!
Happy new year, everyone! My year was as always filled with fabulous music. Check out my yearly chart of the tracks I've listened to the most in 2019, both old and new. All these songs are amazing, so maybe you'll find something new to listen to that you haven't heard before.

On January 18, Cherry Pop Records will finally reissue the amazing pop album "The Big Kiss" by former Dollar member Thereza Bazar. The album was originally released in 1985 and included the singles "Too Much In Love" and the title track "The Big Kiss". The latter was remixed by PWL and that remix is luckily one of the bonus tracks.
I'm especially happy to see that they've included my personal favourite, "Gotcha!", theme song from the movie of the same name. It's totally amazing. The whole album and the bonus tracks have been digitally remastered from the original master tapes. It has never before been released on CD so this is a must for all fans of eighties pop music.
