The Jammers - Can You Keep It Up? | Disco, Funk & Boogie Vinyl | Picture Sleeve | 12 Inch Vinyl | Past Due Records Cat No: PASTDUE025 Record Label: Past Due Records Genre: Disco, Funk, Boogie Disc Colour: Black Format: 12 Inch Vinyl with Picture Sleeve Description: Past Due Records unveils a pair of previously unreleased gems from The Jammers, unearthed by disco legend Richie Weeks during work on the Love Magician Archives series alongside Jerome Derradji. Originally intended for a second Jammers album that never came to light, these tracks now finally get the release they deserve on this essential 12 Inch Vinyl. Recorded during the early 1980s at the height of NYC’s boogie and post-disco explosion, both tracks feature the unmistakable signature sound that made Richie Weeks and his studio projects like Weeks & Co and The Jammers so influential. The A-side, "Can You Keep It Up?", is a classic slice of electrofunk and boogie, packed with dual male and female vocals, propulsive synth basslines, crisp guitar licks, and shuffling drum patterns. It’s a high-energy, dancefloor-ready track that perfectly captures the era’s infectious groove. On the flip, "Halfway There" delivers another standout moment, blending soulful vocals with rich, tactile synth work and an irresistibly funky rhythm. It’s a smooth yet driving cut that showcases the depth and musicality of The Jammers’ unreleased catalogue. These long-lost recordings offer a rare glimpse into an unreleased chapter of disco history, making this release a must-have for fans of boogie, funk, and classic NYC disco.
