Life is something special, isn’t it? That’s something you can palpably feel in the music of Larry Levan. When he introduced music to the dancefloor he reimagined the music in a way the originals (possibly) never imagined. In a way he made that music everyone’s. Was Gwen Guthrie’s music ever truly hers? Was it ever truly Larry’s? Certainly it was, for just a moment, Sly and Robbie’s. Certainly, it was once Wally Badarou’s and Darryl Thompson’s. However, once it was sung by Gwen, and heard by Larry, it became his. When Larry felt the sense of inspiration overcome him, and felt the urge to feel it (in his own way), it became ours. Music is something special, and for the original run time of 34 minutes, Larry Levan’s Padlock (Special Mixes) is an EP of music displaying how much his ideas were based on intuition and tradition, processed and developed, in a very special moment in time. Gwen Guthrie may have been the muse but the dancefloor had been his canvas.
