Criminal Element Orchestra - Put The Needle To The Record (1987)

From Criminal Records New york back towards the beginning of house music, this Wally Jump Jr production is smokin' breakbeat. A well known hit off Arthur Bakers label, this song was not played at a lot of places, it wasnt quite house...not electro or freestyle. More like fast mininal hip hop, I only played it for years with hop hop. Until I rediscovered it within a house set. And it worked. And it works clearly with breakbeat. And techno. And even rock. And it definitly doesnt sound like its from 1987. Its way too fresh sounding.
