👽 The golden era of Progressive House 👽

Three Drives On A Vinyl - Greece 2000 (Original Mix)
Label: ZYX Music
Released: 1997

The track “Greece 2000” by Three Drives on a Vinyl was released in 1997. It was an instant hit in all of the clubs and raves I was frequenting in 1998 (it took a little while for new stuff to hit us in the Midwest of the U.S.A., back then). With its multiple arpeggiated layers, dreamy synth pads, and well thought out song structure, this song took club goers and warehouse ravers alike on an 8 minute euphoric journey.

It was neither happy, nor psychedelic. It wasn’t angry or sad. It was just…beautiful…and when it came on, it would meld a room of dancers together in to a single emotive consciousness as you can watch in the second slide! Played by Deep Dish at Cavo Paradiso in Mykonos!!

Three Drives (as they came to be known, dropping the “on a Vinyl” part of their name) are a Dutch production duo comprised of Erik de Koning and Ton van Empel. While they stayed active throughout the 2000’s, the late 1990’s through 2001 were probably their most successful time, as producers (at least under the Three Drives moniker), since that is when the early days of the progressive trance genre of EDM was emerging in the states and reaching its peak, everywhere.

Frank Wilson - Do I Love You (Indeed I Do)

“Music has always been part of my life. In 1960, I lost my athletic scholarship after participating in the civil rights sit-in demonstrations in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and thought I had sacrificed my big chance to escape an ordinary existence. I was given a ticket to Los Angeles by the Congress Of Racial Equality. Yet when I arrived there, I never imagined, ‘This is the place where my dreams will be fulfilled.’ I now know each step was directed; meeting Hal Davis, Marc Gordon, Brenda Holloway and Berry Gordy Jr. Interestingly, when I went into the studio to record 'Do I Love You' it was just another day at work. I was excited to be in the studio doing anything and getting paid to do it, but I have learned that God moves in mysterious ways. That one day at work spent recording ‘Do I Love You’ essentially as a demo, was soon forgotten, and yet, it turned out to be a life changing experience. I am proud of what I did and humbled by the affection shown to me by so many people from all over the world.”

Frank Wilson

Approximately 250 demo 45s of the song were pressed in 1965 and scheduled for release on 23 December 1965. Owing to a combination of Wilson deciding that he would rather focus on producing and Motown's Berry Gordy's lukewarm reception of the vocals and wish to prevent his producers from having a successful recording career, the demos were destroyed. At least two, and maybe as many as five, copies survived, one of which fetched £25,742 in April 2009. One is rumoured to be owned by Berry Gordy. Due to its scarcity it remains one of the most collectable discs especially by followers of Northern soul. Owing to the demand caused by it being played at the famous English Northern soul nightclub, Wigan Casino, it was first officially released in the UK in 1979 on the Tamla-Motown label, and again in 2004 with a version of the same song by Chris Clark on the B-side.
