Patrick Adams Presents Phreek – Weekend | Disco 12 Inch Vinyl Cat No: SSD65004PLabel: South Street DiscoGenre: Disco, Disco-Funk, Cosmic Disco, Classic DiscoDisc Colour: BlackForma t: 12 Inch Vinyl Description: Patrick Adams Presents Phreek returns with an essential collection of timeless disco classics, as South Street Disco officially reissues and remasters three of the group's most sought-after recordings. Featuring two tracks that have never previously appeared on a 12 inch vinyl release, this outstanding package celebrates one of the most influential projects from the golden era of New York disco. Led by legendary producer Patrick Adams alongside disco icon Leroy Burgess, Phreek's catalogue remains a cornerstone of dance music history. Leading the release is the immortal 'Weekend', originally released in 1978 and written by Leroy Burgess and James Calloway. A legendary Paradise Garage anthem and firm favourite of Larry Levan, the track perfectly captures the magic of late-'70s disco-funk. Cosmic synthesisers, sweeping strings, infectious guitar grooves, powerful basslines and the unforgettable vocals of Christie Shire combine to create one of the most celebrated records of the era. Its influence stretched far beyond disco, famously inspiring Todd Terry's house music adaptation a decade later. Also featured is the uplifting and soulful 'Everybody Loves A Good Thing', a shimmering slice of cosmic disco packed with soaring vocals from Leroy Burgess and Venus Dodson. Rich synthesiser textures, vibrant arrangements and a sublime piano breakdown make this an irresistible dancefloor weapon that continues to resonate with DJs and collectors alike. On the flip side, the legendary 'I'm a Big Freak [R U 1 2]' receives a full-side presentation, allowing its hypnotic groove to fully unfold. A high-energy disco-funk workout fuelled by driving basslines, seductive vocal hooks and otherworldly keys, the track has remained a secret weapon for generations of selectors, earning support from dance music pioneers including Ron Hardy and Theo Parrish. It's a timeless club classic that still sounds devastatingly effective on modern sound systems. An essential release for fans of disco vinyl, cosmic disco records, Patrick Adams productions, Leroy Burgess classics and expertly curated 12 inch disco reissues.
