2:48. That break right there! Maaan, Larry would loop that break over and over and over and we danced to it forever. I thought that was the whole song for years. Thats a Paradise Garage dance classic. Took me a while to find out what the rest of the song was. Heard the entire song at a party many years later and when that break came in I almost lost it! 😂
Cymande is a British funk group that was originally active in the early 1970s. ... originating in nations including Guyana, Jamaica, and Saint Vincent.
To mrsm222...yes the Garage!!! That was theee jam! Larry mixed the shit out of that! Memories that last a lifetime! Today...club goers...have no idea what a club IS!!!
I was at a dance in nyc a couple of Saturdays ago and the DJ only played 20 seconds of this song😞, I almost threw my shoe @him was so dissatisfied with him, this song needs to be played entirely even as we approach 2020😀
Hahaha! I know the feeling. This is the jam! We're used to hearing good music play out. They think it's cute to tease these little tiny snippets. Its horrible! Sometimes by the time you get on the dance floor the cut is over and you're standing there looking stupid. If I was there with you it would be two shoes 🤣
This song brings back joyous memories with goosebumps brought inbound from late 70s, 80s, 90s....... NYC clubs like the Garage, Silver Shadow. Ones, Palla dium, Bentleys, Leviticus, Pegasus, to name a few -- so many others I can't recall but remember the locations. You had to grab someone and get on that dance floor when this break loop came on. I wish I could go back in the past 1 to a million more time.
BACK IN DA DAYZ IN THE BOOGIE DOWN BRONX IN THE PARK BREAK DANCING AND DOING THE HUSTLE...BELMONT PARK...CENTRAL PARK......SUMMER BLOCK PARTIES....WOW....THOSE WERE THE DAYZ.......TODAYS YOUNG CATZ DONY KNOW ABOUT THAT...THEY WERE NOT THERE...........WORLD CLASS DJ....MIXMASTER TONY T. LAPORTE
I have been blessed to have 1. Frankie Crocker/WBLS. 2. OLDer sister 3. Mom for that LOUD silver FISHER stereo... I don't know what was 1st, the radio plays or STARES at thee CYMANDE album!! Love THE BREAK yes, but still ADORE the whole song!! In my top 50 of all time...out of thousands! but its ALLRIGHT!!
Every block party or what we called JAMS in the the parks in NYC lost it when the DJ's played Bra. The whole darn 10 minute version. Yees 🕺 💃 😅😊 Shout out to Cymande one of the greatest legendary bands that came from the era of professional musicians. ❤❤
The D.J. would always jam this favorite at the Friday nights dance given by the Student Council at the Lincoln High School Jersey City, N.J. gymnasium. PARTY TIME!!!!
The break in this song is just too much. I remember how my bro. DJ Ron use to use the 'break' in this song at the BBQ parties & the crowd would go bunkers. Remember the dance, the BUMP!!!
This record was blaring outside someone’s car stereo in 1972 Philadelphia, when I received my first bloody nose from an intimidating bully. I’m a click from 60 now, and pack intense heat. Now, I love this track. We’ve come a long way, Cymande. (And we have still gone on!)
Takes me all the back to 1977. PS. 297 playground. Park Ave. between Marcy and Tompkins. Brooklyn. 16 years old and finding out that I could compete for the girlies. Lots of fun back then. DJ's would bring the music, and somehow everyone knew. Didn't even need cell phones....
Frankie T. (Brooklyn NYC in ATL 1978!) would remix Bra with Herman Kelley’s ‘Let’s Dance’, ‘Soul Makousa’, ‘Hollywood’ by the Village People, ‘Apache’, & more matching up the percussion almost seamlessly. Hassan of Brooklyn, would have the microphone spontaneously rapping dance directions. I’ve thought of these dance moments thousands of times through the years, reliving them in my head, projecting them onto an imaginary dance-scape
i remember being at the world and the dj (was it frankie knuckles - dont remember) played the extended break, and extended the break for like 10 - 15 minutes... everytime the drumroll was about to peak the bassline would drop again! it was crazy! he probably could have kept it going forever... one of my favorite cuts of ALL TIME! Thanks to Danny for extending it, thanks to cymande for making it!
YESSSSSS! TAKES ME BACK TO SUMMER TIME, JAMS IN THE PARKS, BLOCK PARTIES & THE HIMALAYA AT CONEY ISLAND!!! THOSE WERE THE GOOD OLE DAYS!!! BROOKLYN IN THA HOUSE!!!!!
I first heard this at the 'BUTTERMILK BOTTOM' in downtown Manhattan. Listening to this brings back the times when we would dance freely, let loose, in a group or with partners. When we left the club we were soaking WET and loving it. manoman those were some great times.
ALRIGHT now I was VIP with my Sista the chemist with the cooler Icon DJ Nicky Siano bass up bass out treble in losing 5 lbs WHAT Larry threw him off the Richard Long one night that's my club right there Panorama Zanzibar Loft Peter Rabbits Melons Better Days
I first heard about Cymande from Paul Winley`s Super Disco Brakes which were bootlegs. I then proceeded to buy as much as I could from the band. If it wasn`t from a bootleg then I might never of known about them. I think it`s more important that labels are stopping tracks being played on RUclips when it is one of the only ways that people will get to hear classic tunes and then go out and buy them. We`re in danger of losing good music for ever. Record labels and publisher`s take note!!
I've been singing this song for Forty Years Strong!!! The heart of break beat music, beat boy dancing to the break beats of these wonderful song. The Father of Hip Hop!!!!
I fell in love with this banger at thee age of 10 years old growing up in Buffalo, NY, and heard it on a car commercial the other day. My sister and I never knew the name of this song -- we just remembered the beat. I had to research and so glad I found it. There was a documentary done on the band last year and the UK newspaper, the Guardian, did a very nice article on these brothers which you can find online.
My Junior High School jam! During our lunch breaks and during study hall, my friends, and siblings would put this jam on and we all would all be dancing, even the teachers! Black, white, Latino guys and gals! Great happy memories of my school years!
Spanish Harlem Young Saigons 13th Div. the Dojo the joint would come ALIVE when this song was played talk about community that joint can take me back every time its played.
I was attracted by the album cover. I had an ect bedroom I used as a sitting room to listen to music and enjoy cannabis and play chess. The walls were covered with alb covers, incl this group. ..
Thank you so much to the person who posted this!!!!! I have been looking for this song for so long....Brings back amazing memories of Junior High in Philly!!!! Pure music!!! They don't make 'em like this anymore!! Wow, Wow, WOW!!!!
Wow! Brings Back The Past...Block Parties The Basements Yo! We Use To Cut This Up The Hook is at 2:34 BKLYN's Own Bed-Stuy Do Or Die... M.F.S.B Love Is The Message!
wow memories of the Power Plant back in the mid 80's and Frankie Knuckles playing this. We would go crazy as he would play the break and extend the build then back to the break. What awesome memories!!!!!
This song creates a mix tape masterpiece every time...just so musically aerodynamic that you can thread infinite possibilities in and out of it segue-wise. A blessing of a number when it comes to tonal quality and unyielding unconditioned love...
The first time I heard this track was 1976 at Bronx river when dust was a must and pink champale and reunite old English and tray bags were purchased in a.hole, and Africa bamata was our father ...Zooloo Nation
Trey Bags! LMMFAO! Nigga you sure enuff revealed your age. Trey bags were $ 3.00 dollars back in the day in NYC. buck wild days back in the 70's. Dangerous but fun!
yomac100 Trey Bags!!! Dayum! Ain't heard that in yearonz! Ha Haaa! In West Philly we copped ours in small nilla envelopes. Weed that is.., dust heads was primarily out North Philly
That song brings me back so many memories I heard it on a car commercial today and flipped! Remembering us kids, making up a dance routine to get quarters from the old heads...
Yes only the REAL GEES listen to this type of CLASSIC Tunes. And talking about Real GEES, Cyndi Lunsford take a bow cos your your stuff period. I was in Secondary school in Ghana and as I recall I couldn't wait for my pocket money to go buy Cymande album. Yes for discos, just like Cyndi said earlier, you play Bra, followed immediately by Fence walk by Mandril then Soul Makoussa by Manu Dibango then I get Lifted by KC and Sunshine. By this time the crowd is getting wild and screaming for more so make a decision whether to keep it Up Tempo or drop to mid tempo for smooching bank then. Hmmm
LOWER EAST SIDE LOVED THIS IN THE YEAR IT CAME OUT ,,, DANCING SOLO AGAINST SOMEONE OR DOING THE BUMP WITH SOMEONE,,, I WAS GOING TO THE DUKE MUST OF BEEN ABOUT 14 YEARS OLD OHHH YEAH AND IT STILL BANGS LES 4 EVER LES 4 LIFE,,,,, LOWER EAST SIDE OF MANHATTAN NYC BABY
Black British funk/soul bands from the 70s and 80s got zero credit. Broke me heart when once said "Paul Young was the best British soul voice of the 80s"!
and you went to the party and the DJ always played the extended version all the way through...no cut-offs!!! and we partied!!! from COCP all he way to Brown's Guest House on Waverly!!! Hell yeah!!!
This song would play a a club in Jersey city called elcentral on Newark Ave. Snd everyone would loose there minds. It would loop for about 45 minutes and when we went out side sweaty and dropping wet. Usually it was winter, but that my memory of this song. I am moving in my chair as I type. WOW!

Interestingly enough, he was a different Smith…. One, Tyrone.

Yes for discos, just like Cyndi said earlier, you play Bra, followed immediately by Fence walk by Mandril then Soul Makoussa by Manu Dibango then I get Lifted by KC and Sunshine. By this time the crowd is getting wild and screaming for more so make a decision whether to keep it Up Tempo or drop to mid tempo for smooching bank then. Hmmm

Black British funk/soul bands from the 70s and 80s got zero credit. Broke me heart when once said "Paul Young was the best British soul voice of the 80s"!
Even before Kool Herc, you could hear this in Brooklyn through Grand Master Flowers.

Props for remembering GMF!
