Premiere: The Fatback Band ‘(Are You Ready) Do The Bus Stop (Joey Negro London Bus Stop Mix)’

Joey Negro will release the third instalment of his ‘Remixed With Love’ series on Friday 16th November.

The longstanding remixer and DJ – real name Dave Lee – has put together yet another edition of his revered compilation, this time with club-ready edits of Sister Sledge, Gwen McCrae, Gladys Knight & The Pips and more.

Opening proceedings is an edit of The Fatback Band’s ‘(Are You Ready) Do The Bus Stop’ which, as you might expect, is a typically joyous, anthemic, funky and soulful disco cut that will find a happy home on many a modern dancefloor over 40 years after its original release. Check it out below.

“I can clearly remember in the 80s having fantasies about being a remixer and dreaming of tweaking my favourite songs and re-releasing them,” says Dave Lee of the release in an official statement. “I really never thought it would happen. The days when I receive the parts for some of these classic recordings are literally a dream come true.”

“Judging from comments and suggestions I get from people online thankfully there is still a large appetite for re-workings of 70/80s material,” he adds. “Something you can’t bank on when you embark on the project. I hope you enjoy the music.”
