My Hang Up Is You (Remixes)
Skull Snaps 1973 album on GSF is iconic because of the huge number of times tracks on it have been sampled by the Hip-Hop community.
The album, produced by genius George Kerr, and featuring the talented Ervan Walters and Sam Culley, was released with a flourish and in a classic gatefold sleeve but GSF floundered and the album flopped. Itâs discovery by Rap music makers has been well documented but before that happened it was discovered by UK Soul detectives in the 70s.
As the Northern Soul scene shapeshifted on from 60âs Motown sound alikes into contemporary black music a whole new music rosta took over the dancefloors. And just as Gil Scott-Heron and Brian Jacksonâs âThe Bottleâ got its debut British spins in the North, so did a whole slew of other acts - includung the Skull Snaps.
âMy Hang Up Is Youâ became a single from the album and an underground anthem. One venue that became synonymous with the track was the Ritz in Manchester where the legendary Soul and Jazz -Funk All-Dayers helped shape UK dance music culture. Paul Mooney has created two 2026 remixes - one vocal and one instrumental - that pay homage to that 1970s golden era when Soul and Disco gelled into an unstoppable force. Fittingly both remixes have been dedicated to those Ritz All-Dayers.
