Hi Jimmybee & welcome to the site

There's an introduction section on the link below.

Always try to ask new members to do a bit of an intro so we know who we are talking to.

I have a Tyrone Ashley 12" "Surround Me" from 1977 which is a modern/disco crossover track, which I thoroughly recommend to anyone on here, sadly I havent got MP3 ability at present, maybe someone else could clip it up. Its an Ian Levine number.

The music is a rip though, as its the same as the instrumental track "Call me" from the 1976 Andrea True Connection LP (More More More), which was a Greg Diamond written number.
