    Fruit's fleeting existence was only recently revealed by the discovery of a few unsold copies of their sole 1978 single "Say It" - a cult showpiece for savvy DJs and collectors. Athens of the North reach out and reissue their complete album of the group's stylish, dancefloor-smashing funk and deep disco on tape, unreleased for over 30 years. Essential!
