ARTHUR RUSSELL’S SEMINAL DISCO CUT "IS IT ALL OVER MY FACE" AVAILABLE COMMERCIALLY FOR THE FIRST TIME ON 45.

When the mainstream turned its back on disco in the early '80s, it allowed dance music to once again choose its own path. As an artist, Arthur Russell routinely chose the paths less travelled. The original male vocal mix, true to Russell's vision, is an organic piece that recreated the atmosphere of David Mancuso's Loft.

The story goes that the  recording sessions occurred during a full moon, and included individuals that would often party at the Loft. An exercise in creating a vibe, the male version of the song reflect the complexity of Russell's arrangements, and a maximalist wall of sound that would become a signature component in his dance productions.

Although the record received some critical acclaim, it wasn't initially a commercial success. That came a little later when a famed DJ remixed the song without permission. According to some, Larry Levan snuck into the West End offices to "borrow" the multi-tracks to make an edit for himself to play at the Paradise Garage. (Also owned by West End's Mel Cheren.) After getting positive feedback at the club, Larry decided to properly remix it with the aid of Francois K, who opted not to be credited because of his contract with Prelude.

Larry Levan's remix, now known as the "female vocal mix", although more structured, is pretty out there. Melvina Woods, a dancer from the Loft, slurs and misses notes as if here own loose joints were dusted, but the animalistic groove is so undeniable in-the-pocket that the track got local radio play, and remains a cult classic in constant club rotation to this day. Of the two versions, Levan's mix is the one that went on to influence early Chicago house DJs, who over the years have sampled the track's distinct drumbeat countless times.

Stick replacement - But much more fun!
Size: For Large & Medium dogs, Color: beige, Size: For Large & Medium dogs, Color: beige
The Pet Qwerks Infused Nylon antler is a great replacement for a stick! My dog Rex loves to pick up sticks around the city and chew them to pieces and eat part of the bark, yet is just as excited about the infused Antler flying across the lawn to chew on. This Antler definitely has a strong scent when you take it out of the package, but for a picky dog like Rex, it is great to get his attention! We have several BarkBone products and my 80 pound dog has yet to chew through one! They are strong and reliable products. We love that Pet Qwerks products are made in America!

Amazing

I ended up buying one for my granddogs. My boys which are tough on toys have had theirs two or three years. That means this is a high quality product

Durable for extreme chewers
Size: For Large & Medium dogs, Color: beige
My dog loves this and he is an extreme chewer and after a week this thing is still holding up fine. My only complaint is that when I opened it, it smelled HORRIBLE and it almost became an outside toy. It’s seriously so gross...

Not for very aggressive chewers
Size: For Large & Medium dogs, Color: beige
My dogs are aggressive chasers and although strong they are whittling them away pretty quickly.
