Big reissue!

Chicago deep house pioneer Merwyn “Merle” Sanders needs no introduction to true heads.As one half of the legendary Virgo Four (alongside Eric Lewis) In the late ’90s, after years of trying to release more material through Trax Records, Merwyn took matters into his own hands. He self-produced his first 12” under the Merle alias — a record that sadly flew under the radar at the time, with most copies eventually destroyed apparently (we definitely had a batch in 1999 but not many!) One track survived and thrived: “Fannie Likes 2 Dance.” What started as a quiet release became an underground classic, highly sought after by DJs , then in 2015 Stripped and Chewed reissued this with extra tracks and the re-sung “Mimi Likes 2 Dance” a big seller here so old school VU heads should own one - go check the internet for the full interesting story.

Now, Still Music present the full reissue of this cult favourite — featuring the two vocal mixes along with a never-before-heard unreleased remix by Merle himself.

This special edition comes housed in a full sleeve, complete with a detailed backstory written by Jerome Derradji about the track’s origins and legacy. A true slice of Chicago house history, back where it belongs — on wax.
