Only just discovered the artist and title (thought it was called 'shadows of the night') been looking for over 25years for this track. Got both Beat Street soundtrack volumes on cassette and vinyl when they were released. Thankyou,thankyou,thankyou. Any idea where i can download this from?
Thanks for posting this Great track. listened about 20 times since i found its called Only Love (shadows) = not shadows of the night as i thought, and with your help, i just bought the above album on Amazon = only 3 left people. from £17.65+post. bargain for a NEW CD contains such a rare groove, thanks again. JD1466
I am searching this track for more about 15 years. now i am hearing it more about 50 times a day. 20 seconds of Beat Street became into 5 minutes of Only Love.
Keep in mind that the variance you're noting is probably due to the high quality sound system of the Roxy back then, which was an RLA by Richard Long; the same legendary audio genius behind Zanzibar and the Paradise Garage. His systems were pure genius and you can literally hear every single instrument to detail.
hahaha wow I too was lookin' for this song literally for like 10yrs..and I found it when I ordered that cd lookin for sum freestyle..I almost fell over!! loll..loveee it!! YO, THERES BEAT STREET...LETS SERVE EM!! LOL..
Dude, I am a 34 yo ex breaker from Down Under Australia. This song has been doing my head in for years! I do not know how many times I have rewound that little 10 sec snippet of the song in Beat Strret. Isn't it the simple things in life from the past that make all the bad stuff go away? I have been smashing this killer track through the headphones and have been swept back to 1984 with the Bronx Rockers, Burners and Addidas tracksuits! I am ever so grateful to you!!!!! :0)
im so grateful that you posted this track....up until now i had no idea what the track title or artist was...from that tiny little snippet in Beat Street, been trying to find this for years....THANK YOU !!!!!
thanks for this upload wicked track back in the days electro\freestyle and the adidas superstar tracksuits and breakdancing its a shame this was neverout on a 12"-peace love and unity........
Wow i thought i was the only person looking for this song, i taped the Beat Street version, its the same..BUT There is a version with Brenda K Starr ( who wrote this song) singing it....Lisa Fishers vocal is the best though
Yeah, I think we all have! AFAIK, it was never released and is only available on The Best Of Criminal Records which has been out of print for years and goes on eBay for $80.
hey cryptic, thanks very much for uploading these videos. been looking for this lisa fisher one since he beat street days - 24 years ago!!. she looks hot in the photo - do u know her ethnic background?. i cant believe it was never released - its a top track!!.
Thx
