Must admit I know nothing about the culture of Voguing other than the press coverage that was around when Madonna had her hit.
So I thought this look's exciting when I saw the new Voguing comp on Soul Jazz.
Only the track listing wasn't so exciting once I checked it, full of good tracks yes no doubt, but I kind of feel most people who collect house/dance (whatever you want to call it) would have or have had most of these already.

Bet the sleeve notes are nice.

Paris Is Burning is now available on a proper DVD, rather than the endless bootlegs that we've had to make do with. It's ESSENTIAL for anyone with even the vaguest interest in NY culture.

BTW, was that Voguing compilation put together by Junior? He got in touch with me recently to say he was coming over to DJ in London sometime soon.

I got given the book that accompanies that compilation for Christmas which is a pretty good read

I've just watched it via YouTube and loved it.
Going to order the DVD now as I'd like my wife to watch it and she won't want to watch it via YouTube (or any non-legit channel)
