Donald Byrd — Love Has Come Around
That’s me!

postpunk:

Donald Byrd and 125th St, NYC - “Love Has Come Around” (1981)

solarflares:

Essential summer jam.

Antidepressants? Hell no. Bump this loud and give in to it.

James Murphy and Pat Mahoney’s glorious DJ set Fabriclive 36 has been in constant rotation at my household, so much so that me and my ladyfriend have begun tracking down all the original tracks from the mix. “Love Has Come Around”, track three on FL36, injects the first moments of dancefloor romance into the proceedings; it’s a sense of longing that punctuates the set’s euphoric highs and deep disco cuts. My girlfriend in fact goes one step further and calls the whole mix a story of a relationship because it all takes place between the two halves of Peter Gordon’s “Beginning Of The Heartbreak / Don’t Don’t [Please Don’t Leave Me]”
