    Reissue of this superb and mega rare 1984 12” from one-hit German beauties Saada Bonaire. Hugely in-demand by those in the know (with prices to match), this quirky trio of tracks was lifted out of obscurity by massive support from Cosmic DJs such as Baldelli and Beppe Loda and drifted around the Mediterranean becoming big on the Balearic scene too.

     

    Title track ‘You Could Be More As You Are’ kills the dancefloor every time with an icy vocal delivery underpinned by chunky synths, wild steel guitar and wonky sitar riffs driven by a great fat b-line as you’d expect from UK reggae star Dennis Bovell who produced all tracks on this 12. Over on side 2 we have ‘Invitation’, a superb grooving cut with a dark squelching bass hook and smoothly sexy vocals and last up is a weird and wonderful spaced-out dubbed-out version of the JJ Cale classic - ‘Funky Way’. Don’t miss!
