DJ Ridym - Good Groove Mix - October 2020

Welcome blogsters to this months Good Groove Mix, I've decided on a 2 hour session this time and have included some classic 80's music covering much ground. Some of the tracks are a nod to Derek Boland aka DJ Derek B who passed away in 2009. 

Derek was widely known as the first UK rapper who in the 80's had some limited success over in the states with tracks like "bad young brother" and "good groove". Sadly I would be surprised if any UK drill/grime or rap artists today would have a clue who is but I figure they owe their success in some part to him.

Prior to his music and producing career Derek was a well known DJ on UK pirate radio stations Kiss and LWR as well as playing every Sunday at Bentley's night club in Canning Town which is where I'd be every Sunday (come rain snow or shine!) listening to tracks like Thelma Houston you used to hold me so tight Lisa Lisa and Cult Jams I wonder if I take you home, Karl Anderson's buttercup and the Jackson's heartbreak hotel. Thinking about it now back then I'd be DJing Saturday but Sundays was always Bentley's night. I have no idea where I got the energy from!

The rest of the mix covers off some more nuggets from around that time/genre with some rare groove plus a couple of reggae versions one of Evelyn Kings I'm in love and the other Peoples Choice do it anyway you wanna from Jennifer Lara and Harold Butler respectively.

That's it from me and as always, stay safe until next time.
