Disco Clown

I don't know too much about Detroit based producer Mike Clark, though the tracks he's produced for Japanese label Third Ear are all beautiful electronic bits, of course he has also put out tunes and appeared on releases from Planet E, Trackmode & Metroplex amongst other very worthy wax merchants. Back in 2004, he put out a lovely set of Disco re-edits on a white label which included edits of Dazz Band, The Isley Brothers, BT Express and this hot little cut up of Canadian Maynard Ferguson's classic 'Pagliacci', a track i first heard on Joe Claussell's 'A Reason To Celebrate' compilation, but originally comes off the 1976, CBS, Bob James produced 'Primal Scream' album. Mr Clark turns this into an all out Body & Soul Disco monster... sweat baby sweat...
