You are correct -- the album cover is very misleading and borders on
insult. The Paradise Garage, true to the foundations of house (which I
feel are being wiped out and/or forgotten), was a black gay club. That
Salsoul itself would repackage that album with that artwork makes me
very confused, because they surely knew what time it was.
