Weekly night White Leather Viper Club has laid on a whole month of special guests and kicks off this week with Glasgow's David Barbarossa. Known in his home for his night Wild Combination, he's come to town to show us a thing or two about disco. We asked him his top 5 rare disco tracks and why he likes them so much.
Bob Chance - Jungle Talk
Over-loud jungle sound effects, wild synths, Bob's club singer looks & a sleazy bump; what's not to like?
Jean-Yves Labat - Cash
Off the wall French fun[k] from this Todd Rundgren sideman with one of the most unpleasant covers of all time. 'C.R.E.A.M'.
Saada Bonaire - Invitation
Super sexy sapphic suggestion sung [slightly out of tune] by a couple of models over Dennis Bovell backing? An invitation I can't refuse.
Chaplin Band - Let's Have A Party
A little over the top, with a message we can all appreciate. You really need the full 10 minute Disco Mix, but that doesn't appear to be online so imagine this, but MORE.
Talking Drums - Courage
Afro tinged post punk from GLASGOW. A Wild Combination family favourite, the keyboard soloing around 3 minutes in gets me every time.
David Barabossa guests at White Leather Viper Club this Wednesday 8th February from 9pm - 3am.
