A classic, thank you. First heard on Electro Street Sounds 1 when I was 14 in 1983. Believe Captain Rock was also part of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde who also did a few belters.
OMFG have been looking for this song for 20+ yrs. Heard it once on the radio with MOJO on 97.9 in detroit and have been looking ever since. My daughter is laughing at me now as Im bobin my head to the beat. Man what the kids today missed out on. Thank for posting this....oh the good ole days with the great music.
This is one of those records that didnt get a lot of radio play, and I never understood why. I had a gold Maxell epitaxial high position audiocassette with this on it and I was on top of the world!!!! I am a child of the 80s
I remember he was in Detroit promoting this song, he preformed it they went crazy for him he was on the scene tv show, I was at home 13 watching on tv.
OMG so love this track, cut my teeth playing this (and Al Naafyish) at clubs along with so many other Electro tracks when I was a budding DJ, folks would go nuts as I was one of only a few buying imports and having the balls to play them. God bless Captain Rock, many an amazing and fond memory of playing this epic classic....
Oh yeah there were about 10-15 of these songs. Not dance not disco not hip hop...it was electro funk Clear,play at your own risk,it's time,electric kingdom. Kraftwerk was a huge influence being one of the bands the first introduced all this synth music. You hear their beats in so many songs
I grew up in this time period there had to be about 6 genres that all collided in late. 70s - mid 80s. A lot of it nobody new what to call it. I called it electro funk because it wasn't quite hip hop yet. One of the biggest influences was Kraftwerk on this whole genre.
My boss never stops big pimping!No matter who don't like it. Threw all infinity.From then to now its year 2024 and we still some super stars from the cosmos!🌍🌀🛸💫
What an absolute bad ass beat for a battling to…popping or breaking to a beat like this would put you in the zone and for me it’s those last bars/beats after the “I shall return”shout out…wow
By far one of the greatest Electro Hip hop joints of the early 80's. We used to spin this cut all night in Miami - 8600 Big Daddy's lounge! Shouts to all you AM party Freaks! Another Kold Klassic ! Thanks for putting this up.
Aleem was way ahead of the game, this was a firm fave back in't the day.. and the fact he made 'release yourself' ...just these two alone make him a legend..
I became 18 on the 13th of August, but I’ve never really been about today’s music. This is a good example why I like oldschool music. It has a nice beat, rhythm and just actual feeling to the singing, rather than just mumbling with today’s so called “rap”
Now this is one of the Tru Kold Klassics from the early 80's. Dance floors were packed and bodies were rockin' all thru Miami back in the day with this joint 8600 Big Daddy's Lounge.......the memories.....oh so FRESH !!!
OLD GOLD?..... Had that 40 oz. 800 in the school yard in the early 80s with the JVC boom box radio/cassette tape!! One of these guys also later put out the song "Release Yourself" another 80s gem.
I’m 43 remember seeing some cardboard boxes laying flat around the council flats I’ll was living with my parents I was 5 back then but I’ll respected my older friends that gave me tips and support to spin with confidence ⭐️ awesome tune Electro Rules
This is one of those records that didnt get a lot of radio play, and I never understood why. I had a gold Maxell epitaxial high position audiocassette with this on it and I was on top of the world!!!!
I love this song 🎶 AT.. 50... Thousand Feet.. 🎶 I Come From A Far Shooting Star, And I'm Here To Take You Home.. And Don't Ask Why And Don't Act Shy Because I'm Not Leaving Here Alone..🎶..
Thank you so much for posting this wonderful music. It reminds me my BREAK DANCING era in DOC"S Disco and Coconut Grove, Clark Air Base in Balibago, Philippines. Way back 1983.
CAPTAIN ROCK FROM MANHATTAN NY. CAPTAIN ROCK USED TO BE THE DJ. FOR THE RAP DUO DR.JECKLE & MR. HYDE. WORKING WITH THE FANTASTIC ALEEMS. "THE RETURN OF CAPT. ROCK" 83'
my uncle and my mom played this at every BBQ every cookout as a child growing up in the 80s I'm 33 now but I remember Watching them dance to this in my grandmom she 2 bedroom apt in the projects we Would dance all nite long
Damn, it's a 'Sin' they won't make music like this anymore, between the "Cursing & Bragging" you don't have a chance to just "The Music" & isn't that really the point! I hope future generations will find this music & enjoy it for what it was made for 'Jammin'!
SCREAMING...CAPT ROCKS... HE ROCKS!!! MANE!!! WHEW Thank you FunkyVinylJunkie. I have both here...Capt Rock..and Capt Rock returns Thanks for the post...peace
Just came from playing Hyperspeed , had to check out the lyric part. When i first heard Hyperspeed on The Prodigy experience(unbelievable album) i assumed they had some girl raver say the lyric.
brilliant old skool tune i remember this on my electro 13 album from the early 80's. i still remember the lyrics. thank you for uploading this, brings back memories.

This is truly a classic. 30 years old and it sounds as fresh as it did when I first heard it 3 decades ago.

The Prodigy brought me here. Two different music cultures going off on the same track. Blows my mind
