Metropolis

Another one-hit Salsoul disco band. Their only chart hit was "I love New York", a big-band sounding instrumental with chanted vocals, popular on UK and US dancefloors in 1978. A US-only 12" DJ promo also provides the long Tom Moulton mix of "I love New York", a fantastic disco record (it's the b-side of "Greatest Show on Earth"). In fact, both 12" were mixed by Tom Moulton and mastered by Jose Rodriguez. "I love New York" is one of only two 12" on Salsoul from the 1970's with a picture cover (the other was by Charo).

I love New York / (short) (Salsoul 12" SG 2060, 1978) The greatest show on earth / New York is my kind of town (Salsoul 12" SG 2070, 1978)
