Enjoy this new episode of Mellow Mellow FM! The tracks by Pleasure and The Prime Time Band are on the Too Slow To Disco 4, which will be out in August. The songs by Kuzko and Lexsoul Dancemachine are brand new.

In 1980 Donna Summer’s album The Wanderer peaked at number 13 on the Billboard Album Chart and sold around 600,000 copies nationwide. The title track, which is on this cloudcast, was quite successful and hit number 3 on the US singles chart. However, two follow-up singles (Cold Love and Who Do You Think You're Foolin') barely reached the Top 40. The main reason for not selling large numbers was probably Donna’s change from disco to dance rock at the time. Critics loved it, but the public was not ready for it yet. 

The track by John Carter is from the new compilation album Bubblerock Is Here To Stay Volume Two, The British Pop Explosion 1970-73, which contains catchy, production based British pop songs from the early 1970s.
