More Info:

Limited edition of 750 numbered copies on crystal clear & translucent green marble coloured 180-gram audiophile vinyl. Edwin Birdsong's self-titled album was released in 1978 on Philadelphia 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 it's time and the irresistible "Freaky Deaky Sities" and "Phiss-Phizz" both became huge club hits, despite not having charted on any of the Billboard charts. Even though the album missed the charts, it became something of a hot item for disco/soul music collectors.
