Crue-L Grand Orchestra - Spend The Day Without You
This track is from the re-issue Crue-L Future Series that was released a few years back and is incredibly difficult to find now, and it is ridiculously expensive should you take the plunge as are most Japanese records. It is even harder to find if you want it off its original release The Crue-L Grand Orchestra I. The Crue-L Grand Orchestra has been around since the mid-90s laying down their traditional disco grooves juxtaposed with, at times, killer house beats. They've been remixed by everyone from Prins Thomas to Recloose to Harvey to the Idjut Boys but even once they've lent their touch to the tracks I always seem to stump for the originals as they are incredibly true to the blueprint put down by the likes of Arthur Russell, Leroy Burgess and the like. The late Mel Cheren famously said that house music was disco on a budget and when you listen to cuts like this you can't help but agree. Quality stuff.
