Ultra-High Frequencies: The Chicago Party

For 23 straight Saturday nights of 1982, the Chicago Party dance show assaulted Chicagoland UHF eyeballs with Spandex, Southside fly guys, tender tenderonies, magicians, contortionists, prismatic video gimmickry, and lip-synched singles by a rising regime of local post-disco casualties. Unfettered nightlife and outlandish humor poured out of oddball outpost the CopHerBox II and onto TV screens, presented here as a 100 minute video mixtape on DVD. It's companion compilation features five previously unreleased tracks, joined by music culled from a trove of self-released 45s and small-time 12"s.
