"Embarrassing my store, by opening up my door, when it's breezy"

In Praise of Charisse Cobb

February 1st, 2010 by RJJNYC

Charisse Cobb is a singer who worked with Steve Silk Hurley under the name Risse, sad to say I don’t know anything about her other than she has an amazing voice and should have a much larger discography.

The Charisse Cobb vocal sample on this Mission Control track is taken from the acappella of Risse – Chain of Fools which appeared on an Atlantic promo but was never released (click link for an mp3).

Junior Vasquez @ Sound Factory 1994

October 30th, 2009 by RJJNYC

This tape has been online for a few years, not sure who originally posted it or who the host is. First saw it posted to a message board by DJ Frankie Peña and was a little wary of the source initially (sorry Frankie!), but it sounds like Junior and the tracks I recognize are all from that era. Tape is dated 1995 but think it’s more likely 94, tracks came out that year and the club closed in February 95.
