Description

00:00 - Life on Mars 05:52 - Rings Of Saturn 09:35 - You Can Be What You Wanna Be 14:40 - Theme From The Planets 19:32 - Latin Love (Let Me Know) 24:22 - Voyager 32:37 - What The Word Is Coming To. Off to Japan for a few months, had you leave you with some straight classics.

Philadelphia records institution Wansel’s classic record ‘Life On Mars’ can be found here on the album of the same name. Wansel plays keyboards, Derek Graves slaps out a monster riff on bass guitar whilst a session singer, Terri Wells, gives us the backing vocals. This record is a genuine Mancuso Loft classic and is actually like going on a journey to Mars itself, although one that lasts only 7 minutes. Other galactic funk highlights to be found on the album include the superb ‘Disco Lights’, and the Enter-the dragon-esque ‘Stargazer’. Seminal stuff and Joey Negro samplefest material

Life on Mars/What the World Is Coming To. Time Is Slipping Away. Science fiction was big in the 1970s. So from a marketing standpoint, it made sense when, in 1976, Dexter Wansel went for a sci-fi theme on his debut album, Life on Mars. Not that the Philadelphia needed a gimmick to get over - if you're good enough to work with heavyweights like the O'Jays, the Stylistics, and the Intruders, you don't need a gimmick.
