Chicago house pioneer Ron Hardy was one of the first DJs - in the Windy City at least, as New Yorkers got there first - to create and play re-edits in his sets. He did this at the Music Box, where he was resident, using the club's reel to reel tape machine. On the Ron Hardy Classics series, we get to grab some of his most legendary tape edits. First up on this two-tracker is Hardy's take on Salsoul disco classic 'Let No Man Put Asunder', a loopy proto-house builder that ekes out the inherent sweatiness and fill-heavy rhythm of the original First Choice cut. 'No Way Back', meanwhile, is not a rub of the Adonis house classic, but rather an insatiable, Clavinet-heavy disco funk number that Hardy successfully turns into a breathless peak-time workout.
