Midnight Express' "Danger Zone" is easily our best selling PPU record of all-time, and one of the finest boogie grooves ever put down on wax. No joke. From that irresistible bass line, those slapping drums, the horns, and even the vocals - it's an undeniable dancefloor sure shot. This 2022 reissue is presented on 45, just like the original private press single, and is backed with solo cut "I Need Good Lovin" from Midnight Express impresario Robbie M on side B. Our vintage Lab review from when the original 2008 reissue was released: I first heard "Danger Zone" at APT during Dam-Funk's boogie set (it's a good thing D-F always shouts out all the record info over his set or I would've never known what the hell this track was). This track was just killing with the funk! Being the boogie fiend (nerd) that I am, I went to look for the track on the interweb only to find that it was a rare as hell 45 that went for $250! Too rich for my blood. Fast forward a month later and I come across the same track on the 'bay for like $12 buy-it-now! How could this be you ask? Well, apparently the good folks at Peoples Potential Unlimited decided to reissue this gem for the first time ever. This is authentic, prime time boogie material people. Don't sleep on it.
