Holy hot damn! Oak Lawn Records was behind this?


UPTOWN - (I Know) I'm Losing You - 1987
You need to upgrade your Flash Player

I've been doing a lot of sleuthing for this History of Dallas Music thingamjigger I got added to on Myspace and just stumbled onto this going through Juno looking for new tunage (totallly unrelated).

Methinks I need to check Discogs next and see what else they were backing. This is a dance classic!

Scotty? Merritt? John Vella? Were you guys caning this when it first came out?

I saw that on their and remember how much of a staple that was for Red Jacket. So much so that it was used for the KDGE radio spots.

I never really knew until yesterday.

Par excellence!
