    DJ Spinna & Kai Alce Present: “Foundations” Classic House 45 Series Part 5: Ralphi Rosario feat. Xaviera Gold 'You Used To Hold Me'

    BBE
      • 1. You Used To Hold Me (Riviera Mix)
      • 2. You Used To Hold Me (Bonus Beats)

      The youngest member chosen for Chicago’s ‘Hot Mix 5’ on WBMX back in 1981, Ralphi Rosario is nothing less than House Music royalty, and 1987 smash ‘You Used To Hold Me’ is surely his most enduring hit. Featuring fellow WBMX DJ and vocalist Xaviera Gold, the song has seen several cover versions, remixes and reissues over the years, but has surprisingly never before appeared on ’45. Spinna and Alce have chosen to create special edits of the ’87‘Riviera’ version and the ‘(You Used To Beat Me Black and Blue) Bonus Beats’ for this double-sided slice of Dance Music history.
