Well I'm no expert, but since I live in Belgium, I know a thing or two about New Beat. ;)
I have the particular record on Speed recs. and it's pretty much the same as Saunderson's original (his name appears in the credits). Altough they might have slowed it down a bit slower for that typical New Beat- beat. :) Before R&S was R&S, it was called Ferrari (hence the logo that still resembles the Ferrari cars logo) They were kind of a cult/trendy thing here in Belgium during the New Beat period of the late 80s. hope this helps, bye Bart www.freestylegrooves.com > -----Original Message----- > From: Tom Robbins/Magic Feet [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: maandag 2 december 2002 18:24 > To: 313 mailing list > Subject: (313) New Beat/Saunderson etc > > > I'm currently researching an article on the Belgian New Beat scene and I > found a listing for a 1988 cover of Reese & Santonio's 'Rock To > The Beat' on > Speed Recs with vocals credited to Jade4U and Nicky Trax.
