Side 1. When You Touch Me (vocal - Larry Levan mix)Side 2. When You Touch Me (instrumental - Larry Levan mix)
Taana Gardner had plenty of huge disco hits in her arsenal and for that reason was a voice frequently heard at cult stateside clubs like The Loft, Studio 54 and Paradise Garage throughout the 70s and 80s. Larry Levan of course was one of those who gave her such a big platform and here we're presented with two of his mixes of her "When You Touch Me" single. The vocal is an intense jazz-funk ride with mad keys and a groove to die for, all with those sensuous vocals up top. The instrumental is no less intense, but allows the skilled instrumentation and bristling arrangement to really shine through.
