Mr. Fingers

It could be argued that Larry Heard's first album as Mr Fingers, 1989's 'Amnesia', was the first full-length to show the rich musical potential of deep house. It was certainly the greatest house album of its period and remains - as this reissue proves - a timeless classic.

Now pressed on three slabs of wax rather than two to make it more DJ-friendly, the set pairs stone cold Mr Fingers classics such as 'Mystery of Love (Dub)', 'Can You Feel It' (presented in its arguably superior instrumental form) and 'Washing Machine', with lesser-celebrated treats such as the breathlessly jacking and percussive 'Slam Dance', the lusciously kaleidoscopic 'Stars' and the early morning delight that is 'For So Long'. It's an album every house head needs in their life.
