I found this in a record store visiting family in Florida, and I looked it up on Spotify and it turned out to be City pop with amazing drum Intros/textures and pretty corny instrumentals

I recently dove deeper into Numero Group’s reissue of tracks from Deep City Records, the Miami-based soul and R&B label founded by FAMU classmates Willie Clark and Johnny Pearsall in the early 60s. Really fun to trace the influences drawn from Motown, marching bands, and Afro-Caribbean music that created the “Miami sound” and launched the careers of great artists like Betty Wright, who recorded the linked song “Paralyzed” when she was 12 years old (!!!)

The original is a moody dance classic and somehow this version feels like a scuzzy unearthed post punk original that is sneakily a cover.
