Another sought-after single from Escape From New York — known for the cult disco/post-punk/synth-wave masterpiece "Fire In My Heart" from 1984 — their 1983 debut single "Save Our Love" gets reissued on heavyweight vinyl by Isle Of Jura.
The original single from Escape From New York finally gets an official reissue. Originally released in 1983 ‘Save Our Love’ was released a year before ‘Fire in My Heart’ and sets out their highly effective fusion of New Wave, Disco, Italo and Post Punk. Featuring Jaki Graham and D.C Lee on backing vocals, the 12” also includes an instrumental mix and cult classic ‘Slow Beat’ (Dance Mix). Escape From New York were short lived and disbanded in 1984 following the release of ‘Fire in My Heart’, ultimately buckling under the pressure of commercial expectations for their innovative brand of pop music. Fast forward to 2023 and history has been kind and these singles are now regarded as being pioneering classics.

Essences of new wave, funkarateena, disco, synth-pop, and '80s boogie. An '80s UK sound that took cues from NYC disco and elevated them into something distinctly British. The synthesizer dub on the B-side is not to be missed. (Original Japanese text by Saito)
