Derrick Lara and Trinity - "Don't Stop Til You Get Enough"

This 12" Disco/Reggae version of Michael Jackson's "Don't Stop Til You Get Enough" by Derrick Lara and Trinity is one of the best from that sub genre - and there have been quite a few over the years. It was released in 1980 on Joe Gibbs Music label and more recently it was part of the Joe Gibbs Discomix Showcase Volume 4 compilation. Derrick Lara, a drummer originally, has a falsetto style that was possibly quite unique in the Reggae circles at the time. And anyone even trying to cover a Michael Jackson hit like this would need to be sure of themselves in the vocal department.... and he pulls it off superbly. Even now this would be uplifting at any social gathering - mainly because it can keep the Disco/RnB/Pop crowd as happy as the Reggae crowd - all at the same time. Unfortunately Derrick Lara died early this year after a battle with lung cancer. Let's hope he will still be remebered for this song in decades to come.
