Nick John – We Stand Together (US 12″)

BURNING THE GROUND EXCLUSIVE 1989

“We Stand Together” is a rousing peak-of-the-night Hi-NRG dance track perfect for kicking off Pride month. Recorded by Megatone Records recording artist Nick John, and remixed by one of the Razormaid Remix service founders Joseph Watt. “We Stand Together” also features backing vocals by Patrick Cowley singer Jo-Carol.

“We Stand Together” was the last of the five singles released by Nick John. There is no further information about him and he seemed to vanish sometime during the early 1990s.

PAUL!!! This is fabulous record to post at the start of Pride Month!! It has always been a favorite of mine. Nick John had some phenomenal records back then and this one was awesome. I love the blue colored vinyl and forgot that Joseph Watt did the mixing on this one. I’m just so excited by it all. Gooseflesh is covering my body. I can’t wait to check this one out later. It’s addictive to be sure. Thanks for posting this classic in all its powerful glory!!
