Review: Here's a cut which might well break out some misty-eyed reminiscence for those who were locked into the UK's rare groove and jazzdance scenes in the late 80s. Cheryl Glasgow's career was brief, but she gifted us two wonderful singles, and it's the second of those Numero have opted to reissue right here. 'Glued To The Spot' has that humid, rhythmic quality which would have gone down a storm with the Balearic set, not least with the attendant club and instrumental mixes on the original 12", but for our money it's Glasgow's understated voice, which lands somewhere between Shara Nelson and Sade, which gives the track its magic.
Review: Cheryl Glasgow's classic 'Glued To The Spot' is a carefree club cut from back in 1987 that mixes up boogie, soul, jazz, funk and electronic styles. It has become a cult and hard-to-find gem over the years so this reissue happily makes it available to all once more. It is one of only two tunes the mysterious Glasgow released but still bangs to this day. First up is the Cub Mix which is packed with earworm synths and louche 80s beats that just draw people to the floor in an instant. The buttery smooth and soulful vocal is of course the highlight on this retro delight.
