1971年に結成されEMIからデビュー、80年代の自主リリース的な7インチなどは相当なレア度となっている北アイルランドのディスコ/ブギーバンドSunshineのコンピレーションがAllChivalからリリースされました。ダブとミキシングのユニークさ、リズムの感じも一筋縄ではいかないユニークな曲あります。

All City Dublinの再発部門AllChivalのコンパイル。ギターやシンセなどをプレイするコンポーザーのStuart Binghamを中心にシンガーの81年の〈Release Records〉からのリリース2曲はPaul Curtisがプロデュース。The B's Kneesという自主でのリリース以降は相当入手困難のようで、高音をつけています。AllChival最初のリリースだったコンピレーションに収録された「Give It To Me」、ダブ、ミックスワークとインディペンデントなラフさが魅力の冒頭の「Oh Gee, I Got You B.B.」など素晴らしい音源がずらり。 (サイトウ)

In a testament to Ireland’s vibrant musical history, Allchival presents an anthology celebrating the disco era’s hidden gems from Stuart Bingham's Sunshine. Culled from the annals of his studio recordings, this collection shines a light on the country’s lesser-known contributions to the global disco phenomenon.

Kicking off the compilation with Sunshine's electrifying "Boogie on Up," a testament to the band's prowess in embracing disco rhythms despite their pop cover origins. Produced by the acclaimed Paul Curtis, the track embodies the infectious spirit of disco, marking a pivotal moment for Irish disco hits. Accompanying it is "Don't Stop Me," radiating with Euro-disco vibes, further exemplifying Sunshine's versatility. Bingham recounts the bittersweet journey of "If This Is Free." Initially slated for success under Curtis's wing, the disco era's abrupt demise altered its trajectory, leading to an independent recording that retains a raw, garagey edge reminiscent of the era's ethos.

"Give It To Me" is another standout, blending Nile Rodgers-inspired arrangements with a Euro-disco flair. Stuart Bingham's production prowess and Rosey's captivating vocals converge to create an irresistible groove that transcends disco conventions.

Venturing into more experimental territory, "The Boogie Bug" showcases some Irish ingenuity in rap-infused grooves. Despite its ahead-of-its-time sound, the track faced resistance in a disco-weary landscape and rounding out the compilation is "Oh Gee, I Got U B.B.," a playful nod to dub-mix traditions.

This Sunshine anthology is a journey through Ireland's disco era, unearthing forgotten gems and shedding light on the country's rich musical tapestry. From Sunshine's infectious rhythms to Stuart Bingham's resilient spirit, each track encapsulates the era's vibrancy and innovation.
