Loose Joints - Tell You (Today): A Rediscovered Classic ReimaginedLoose Joints was the disco brainchild of Arthur Russell - a visionary composer and producer who helped shape the sound of New York's underground club scene. Unlike many of his contemporaries who chased polished perfection, Russell embraced rawness and spontaneity. A classically trained musician, he mastered the art of crafting 'perfect imperfections,' infusing disco with a punk attitude and an intellectual edge.'Tell You (Today)' emerged from the same legendary Blank Tape Studio sessions that gave birth to the cult favorite 'Is It All Over My Face.' Like it's predecessor, it features a cast of handpicked studio luminaries and disco outliers, all guided by Russell's distinct vision. But while the DNA is similar, this track veers more toward leftfield pop, buoyed by Russell's unmistakable vocals.On the A-side, DFP presents a masterfully updated take on Larry Levan's original remix. Blending unreleased outtakes with refined sonic upgrades, this 'Special Version' stays true to the source material - making only the most delicate adjustments to optimize it for today's dance floors.The B-side is a gem in it's own right. It features the elusive New Shoes Mix with Parts I & II edited here for seamless, continuous play. Long shrouded in confusion due to misprints and misattributions - from the 1983 release to various reissues - while labeled as New Shoes it has in most iterations been a variation of the Larry Levan mix.Now, for the first time, DFP Vaults is proud to present the New Shoes Mix in it's full, 15 minutes, intended glory - finally giving this lost version the recognition it deserves.Tracklisting:A. Tell You (Today) (Dimitri From Paris Special Version) (6:36)B. Tell You (Today) (New Shoes) Parts I & II (15:50)
