80's Boogie/Soul Duo "Aurra/Deja" got the New Jack Swing Production treament on their 1988 album "Made To Be Together" . A whole List of New Jack Producers/Act's had some part to play in it from "Teddy Riley" , "Lee Bubba Drakeford" , "Zan" ,"Bernard Bell" , "Marsha McClurkin (Of Abstrac'/M&M)" & the Late "Gene Griffin".
I remenber reading some interview with "Teddy" saying he wished he had'nt have given the New Jack Sound to the more Older/Established Soul Act's . I don't know if that's true or if it even still applies today but they can be proud of their work two decades on because their was some really underated cut's from that album !
On this single release "Going Crazy" "Timmy Regisford" was drafted in to extend & remix the track in both New Jack & House Formats . The U.S release got all the mixes (do pick up this 6 track 12") whilst the U.K company opted for the more House style mixes.
Here's the U.S New Jack Dub mix in FULL (Check Timmy's Bass Sound near the end - Magic !) Pure UNCUT New Jack Production, seminal for it's time , I just wish every New Jack single release came with an Extended Dub Mix ...i Just Love Them :)) ENJOY !
I was fortunate enough to score this mix on promo CD...such a cool dub!
