DMC (Disco Mix Club) : DJ-only Promo LPs - 1985
Due to Madonna's dominance of the charts this year, her music appeared on five of these exclusive DJ LPs, and one 'Best Of' as follows:
February - saw the first DMC disc to feature an exclusive Madonna medley when the 'Megadonna' remix by renowned DC Alan (The Judge) Coulthard appeared on a 'Mixes' LP. The remix consists of 'Like A Virgin', 'Lucky Star', 'Holiday' and 'Borderline'. Not surprisingly this disc, is one of the rarest of all the DMC discs. However, for those who would just like to get a copy of the remix it is included on another 'Best Of' album as shown below.
May - 'Mixes' with a 'Dance In May' mash-up by The Judge which included 'Material Girl'.
August - 'Mixes' with a 'Dancemix' mash up, again by The Judge, which includes 'Into The Groove'.
September - 'Preview' including a sneaky peak of what would be the new single 'Gambler'. However, this is of less interest to the collector as it was not a remix or sequenced with other tunes - just the same version about to be released.
September - 'Mixes'. This is one of the rarest DMC discs as it contains an exclusive remix of ‘Into The Groove’ by 'Sanny X' as referred to in the press releases from Steve Lillywhite - see the entry for 'Into The Groove' and this is reflected in the valuation. Incidentally, ‘Into The Groove’ would become the most popular Madonna song on the DMC format, appearing more often than any of her other songs.
