Hi,
I've been after a couple of tracks since about 1993/4 when I used to go out raving, but have never known what they were called. Both these tracks have since been remixed, but to my knowledge have not kept the original title.
One track was the original of Rocking with the Best by United in Dance on Essential Platinum 2002 (EPP 040), and was the B side.
The other was the original of Blow The Roof by 2 Damn Tuff on Thin 'n Crispy (TNC 002)
As said both originals were from around 1993/94, does anyone know what they were called?
Many thanks Toby

Ah, that was discussed on here before. Can't think of the name though.
EDIT
Did a little look through the old topics - "search" on the bar near the top of the screen in the forum section - and came up with this.

That must have taken a while to compile. Good work
I wish I'd seen this earlier, I could have helped with most, but never mind. I've not gone through it in great detail yet but have noticed a couple you've missed off.
Forever Autumn by Justin Haywood (Autumn Forever - Supreme, UFO and possibly Stompy) - Can't believe you missed this Donna Grassie Classic ;-)
Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen (Hard 'n Nasty Vol 1)
Dreamer by ? (Hard 'n Nasty Vol 1)
I'll go through it in better detail sometime and see if I come up with any others.

oh, and Broken Wings was better by Supreme and UFO feat Donna Grassie rather than the GO Mental version ;-)

Good old Mortis
You're a star. I believe it's actually Crowd Pleasers (Not Pleasures as mentioned) Vol 1 A-side. Although I can't find an MP3 or youtube to listen to (only has B-side), the A-side is itself a remix and samples Rob Acid "Happy Answer". I found that on youtube and is the same song although not the version I was referring to. If anyone has Crowd Pleasures Vol 1 (possibly by DJ SS) could they send me a sound clip/file?
Just need to find the orginal to Blow the Roof now :-)
Cheers, Toby

The Rockin with the best one definately IS Crowd Pleasers Volume 1 side A, I asked the guy who had posted the B-side to also post the A-side. Ahh, the memories. This track was really hammered back in the day. Think I first heard it at Carl Cox's birthday at Vibealite, Venue 44 :-)
Non on ebay, but believe there's 3 on discogs
One more track to id, fingers crossed
