"'To Woo Lady Kong' -- a Balearic anthem in the making -- is an extremely rare and sought after dub-reggae influenced version of Chaz' platinum-selling disco classic 'Glad To Know You.' Included is pioneering electro track '3,000,000 Synths' in it's original form, as well as an exclusive new edit from Sean P -- still sounding incredibly fresh more than 20 years after its original release. The original 'Glad To Know You' (of which 'To Woo Lady Kong' comes close to being an anagram), co-written by Chaz and Ian Dury, was a massive international dance hit and Paradise Garage favorite on its release during the '80s, selling 90,000 copies and sitting at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 for six weeks. Chaz also co-wrote many of The Blockhead's songs, including 'Sex And Drugs And Rock And Roll' and 'Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick.' The 12" showcases two distinct sides of Chaz' musical output with the smooth, Balearic dub of 'To Woo Lady Kong' and the raw electro of '3,000,000 Synths,' meaning it will have wide appeal."
