BURNING THE GROUND EXCLUSIVE 1990

Happy belated birthday George Michael! I meant to post this yesterday for GM’s birthday but didn’t get it finished in time. So here it is today. Enjoy!!

Black Wax is an early 1990s bootleg remix label which put out remixes and megamixes of music covering everything from ’50s to ’90s music. Many of the single artist remixes have new production under them making them very unique.

On this 12″ we have the Wham! “Summer Fun Megamix”. A really nice mix featuring some of Wham!’s biggest hits including “Wham! Rap”, Freedom, I’m Your Man” and more. On the filip side is a megamix of early 80′s disco/funk/r&b tracks, including “Love Come Down” by Evelyn King, “Get Down Saturday Night” by Oliver Cheatham, and “You’re The One For Me” by D-Train.

BURNING THE GROUND EXCLUSIVE 1989

“The Time Warp” is a song featured in the 1973 rock musical The Rocky Horror Show and in the 1975 film adaption The Rocky Horror Picture Show, as well as a dance performed during the chorus of the song of the same name. The song is both an example and a parody of the dance song genre in which much of the content of the song is given over to dance step instructions. The dance is one of the major audience-participation activities during screenings of the film and performances of the show. It has become a popular song beyond the reaches of the film and show, and is often played at dances and weddings.

In 1989 The Rocky Horror Picture Show was released on CD for the first time to coencide with the 15th Anniversary of the films release. “The Time Warp” was given a fresh remix and included on the soundtrack as a bounus track. The song was also released on a special 12″ maxi-single by Ode Records.

On October 26, 2010 the cast of GLEE performed the song as part of a Glee episode dedicated to The Rocky Horror Picture Show, dubbed as “The Rocky Horror Glee Show”
