Joe Bataan is a musician from New York who began his recording career in the late 60’s. His music eventually leads him into the disco era where he released three dance projects on Salsoul Records. “Sadie (She Smokes)” comes from his 1980 project titled “Mestizo” – produced by him. The track features Jocelyn Brown on lead vocals taking us into the world of this siren that seems to capture the men’s attention when she moves. It is a last disco edge track from the 80’s with plenty of the syndrums and energy. Along with the powerful vocal from Jocelyn it is one of the underground favorites from the Salsoul label.
I have taken the 12” version of “Sadie (She Smokes)” and relit the fire again for this ReStructure Mix. A bit of play with the beat and syndrum tracks offer a new intro and some shifts on the arrangement make this a new woman again.
