I'm Ready To Party For Days
Nytro was a group that was produced by Norman Whitfield and put out two LPs on his label Whitfield Records. This track come from the 1979 followup to their 1977 self titled LP. Norman Whitfield produced tracks for Motown in the 60's and turned out hits for The Temptations and Marvin Gaye. In the 70's he produced for acts such as Rose Royce, The Undisputed Truth, and Starguard. Nytro had a funky macho lazer soul sound that paved the way for acts like Zapp, D-Train, and Midnight Star.

WOW!!! Great blog guys! I'm very grateful that you are out there keeping this music alive. I'm playing to a college crowd next week and will be sure to drop some of these choice tunes.

Concur with Evan, I always get excited when I see something from Beat Electric in my reader! All these boogie tracks are the bomb. Keep up the good work boys :)

Now you have to post "High on the Boogie" by Stargard and the circle will be complete.
