Sexy Dancer / Controversy

A rare chance to get hold of two of pop legend Prince’s most sought-after dancefloor bombs on one slab of 12” vinyl. This great remastered reissue features the super-rare long versions of both ‘Sexy Dancer’ and ‘Controversy’. Both originally only available as limited promos, these awesome extended versions went on to become underground club classics receiving heavy rotation from the likes of Larry Levan and Ron Hardy amongst many others. The A-side’s ‘Sexy Dancer’ from 1979 was Prince’s first foray into 12” extended versions though weirdly enough it never secured a US release, which is maybe why it’s so hard to track down nowadays. It’s a super-funky disco killer featuring Prince’s trademark prominent bass licks and mesmerising guitar solos. Flip over for over seven minutes of uncompromising raw funk from the ever-relevant Controversy. A sure-fire floor-filler whenever it’s dropped, this extended version is ramped up with extra heavy bass and guitar. A must for Prince fans and disco connoisseurs alike - don’t miss!
