STRATAVARIOUS – Nightfall – 7″
During the disco era, there were numerous albums by one-off studio collectives that have since gone on to become sought-after items amongst collectors. One of those is undoubtedly the sole, self-titled album from Stratavarious, a 1976 set produced by sometime Philadelphia International Records arranger John L. Usry. This must-check “45” features two versions of one of the album’s highlights: laidback, Latin-tinged, occasionally jazzy number ‘Nightfall’. You’ll find the extended seven-inch edit on the flip, where celestial female backing vocals and languid trumpet solos rise above a samba-tinged beat and luscious orchestration. Japanese producer T Groove provides an arguably even better A-side re-edit which is a little more groove-based while retaining all of the track’s detailed, intricate musicality.
