300枚限定プレス。本作は1970年代の未発表ディスコ・トラック2曲とダブ・ミックスを収録。DJ Jimmy Michaelsによる編集とリミックスが施されている。

A面の"Baby Do It"は、フィラデルフィア音楽シーンで活躍した伝説的プロデューサーBud Rossの作品。スタジオ・ミュージシャンと共に制作されたこのトラックは、映画やラジオ向けに作られた隠れた名曲だ。長年親交のあったJimmy Michaelsがオリジナル・マスターテープから発掘し、新たなアレンジで蘇らせた。

B面にはライブラリー音楽の重要人物Dick Hieronymousによる"Ask Me To Dance"を2ヴァージョン収録。ヴォーカルはMarcia ElderがSassy Alan名義で参加。1980年代のテレビ映画で使用されたが、完全版は今回が初の公式リリースとなる。Jimmy MichaelsがDickの膨大なアーカイブから選び出し、ヴァイナル盤として日の目を見ることになった。

Smiling Cレーベルからリリースされる本作は、ディスコの歴史的価値と現代的なサウンドが融合した特別な1枚。ヴァイナルならではの質感で、当時のスタジオ・セッションの熱気を伝える。

This release features two previously unreleased 1970s disco tracks and a dub mix, edited and mixed by DJ Jimmy Michaels.

The A-side presents "Baby Do It," a track produced by the legendary East Coast figure, Bud Ross. From his modest beginnings as a car salesman to becoming a key force in Philadelphia’s music scene, Bud Ross left a lasting impact across multiple generations and genres. Unlike traditional band-driven productions, "Baby Do It" was crafted in the studio with a rotating collective of session musicians. Bud’s method was to assemble talented players, dive into a genre and theme, and create songs designed for movie placements, artist collaborations, or radio airplay. Years later, Jimmy Michaels—a DJ and Bud’s longtime friend—unearthed some of these hidden studio session gems, breathing new life into them with fresh arrangements. "Baby Do It" emerged as the standout track from a collection of unreleased disco and pop material, remixed from Bud’s original master tapes.

On the B-side, we have two versions of "Ask Me To Dance" by Dick Hieronymous, a cornerstone figure in library music production. A seasoned composer and soundtrack veteran, Dick has contributed to film scores since the 1960s. "Ask Me To Dance" features vocals by Sassy Alan, a pseudonym for Marcia Elder. An edited version of this track made its way into the 1980s TV teen film Goin’ All The Way, but the full version was never officially put out. Once again, Jimmy Michaels worked closely with Dick to sift through his vast archive, creating new mixes of his disco material. Dedicated to preserving Dick’s legacy, Jimmy made these tracks available on Bandcamp through his own label and then helped Smiling C to collaborate with Dick to release them on vinyl.
