Journey into Paradise…The Larry Levan Story

One of the few truly legendary figures in the universe of contemporary dance music, the late, great Larry Levan revolutionized the art of the DJ with his soulful and eclectic sets, insanely audiophile rig, and consummate flair as both an innovative remixer and visionary turntable artist. Revered for the pulsing dance floor magic he created as resident DJ at New York City’s famed Paradise Garage—perhaps the most revered club in dance music history—Levan merged underground hits with popular classics of every genre to take the communal dance experience to new heights. A seminal figure in both the disco-defined ’70s and house-centric ’80s, his innovations reshaped dance music itself, and influenced every DJ who would follow. Featuring Phreek’s “Weekend” (12" Extended Version), Positive Force’s “We Got The Funk” (12" U.S. Re-edit Version), and Donald Byrd & 125th Street, N.Y.C.’s “Love Has Come Around” (12" Version) and also includes tracks Levan featured in his influential DJ set, including Janice McLain’s “Smack Dab In The Middle.”
