Retro Saturday: Chaz Jankel/Quincy Jones

A bit of a shared-custody moment here, as I want to feature two versions of the same song. "Ai No Corrida", most recently covered by Uniting Nations a couple of years back, was originally recorded by Chaz Jankel, who was the musical director of Ian Dury's Blockheads - and who then went on to surprise us all with this disco classic. Find the extended version in all its glory at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MwmuqmIiN90

It was Quincy Jones who went on to have the big hit version of course....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a7Vi40fVC-0
