By the time they pitched up on Salsoul in 1977, First Choice were already big news in the disco scene, having previously released a number of dancefloor anthems on Philly Groove Records. It was Salsoul, though, that employed New York DJs and studio buffs to turn their radio-length songs into extended dancefloor workouts. The fruits of the label's labours are showcased on this fine double-album compilation. It includes notably different versions of "Double Cross" from Shep Pettibone and Larry Levan (the latter being our pick of the pair), Tom Moulton's stupendously good mix of "Doctor Love" and lesser-known Tee Scott mixes of "Breakaway" and "I Can Show You (Better Than I Can Tell You)". Oh, and Frankie Knuckles' sublime interpretation of "Let No Man Put Asunder".
