Description
Edwin Birdsong’s self-titled album was released in 1978 on Philadehia International Records at the height of the Disco craze. By this time, Edwin was a major player at PIR and a talented songwriter and producer as well.Birdsong’s vision hits the mark as the album boasts several gems that became dance floor classics. “Cola Bottle Baby”, “Kunta Dance” and “Goldmine” are all hard hitting funks gems that kick in hard and are ready for partying. Daft Punk sampled the hitsong "Cola Bottle Baby" in "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger". The sexy “Lollipop” is years ahead of its time and the irresistible “Freaky Deaky Sities” and “Phiss-Phizz” both became huge club hits. Even though the album missed the charts, it became something of a hot item for disco/soul music collectors.
Edwin Birdsong is available as a 45th anniversary edition of 750 copies on light green marble vinyl and includes an insert.
