William S - I'll Never Let You Go (Remastered) - Trax

Saving desperate second hand purchasers a packet in their quest for Chicago house nirvana, Trax do the right thing and reissue the utterly deadly "I'll Never Let You Go". Lifted straight out of 1987 and sounding as golden as the day it was cut, William Stover's brief turn makes all the right moves for a jam from the earliest days of house music. The vocal comes on impassioned and yearning, the beats fall rough and loose, and the bassline keeps things moody throughout, and that's all it took to make a perfect slice of dance music back in the day. The instrumental on the flip takes things to a searching, mystical level with strings that would have been fit for a Detroit release.
