Quiet Fire - It's A Holiday - 1979 - RCA Records - Disco/Funk - Vinyl LP/Record Album - Used

This 1979 promotional release features Quiet Fire’s infectious groove on a 12-inch vinyl single, distributed by RCA Records under their distinctive "Disco Magic" sleeve. Produced and arranged by Clarence K. McDonald for Pacific West Management, the record captures the high-energy essence of the late disco era, blending electronic elements with soulful funk. This specific copy is a dual-sided promotional press, offering a stereo mix on Side A and a mono version on Side B, both running at a dance-floor-friendly 33 1/3 RPM. The tracks were originally featured on the album Love Explosions, showcasing the group's tight instrumentation and the polished production typical of the era's major label soul releases.

Quiet Fire remains a favorite among crate-diggers and disco aficionados for their sophisticated arrangements and driving rhythms. "It's A Holiday" stands out as a quintessential example of the transition from classic soul to the more electronic-influenced disco sound of the late seventies. Collectors often seek out these "Not For Sale" promotional copies because they were typically pressed from fresher stampers to ensure peak audio quality for radio play and club DJs. This record serves as a vibrant time capsule of the 1970s club scene and a great addition to any collection focusing on the evolution of R&B and dance music.
