The tireless compilers at Numero Group kicked off their newest series of compilations this week with the CD release of Don't Stop: Recording Tap. This first Don't Stop volume is a chronicle of Jeremiah Yisrael's disco label Tap Records, the source of a couple 12" singles Numero Group has already reissued. Those tunes from Fabulous 3 MCs and Jackie Stoudemire make appearances on Recording Tap, as do contributions from Arnie Love & the Lovettes, Magnetism, and Bonnie Freeman, among others.

For the Numero fanatics who don't mind waiting for the vinyl, the compilation comes out on LP April 8. Just like the CD, the vinyl comes with two booklets, one telling the story of Tap and the other reprinting sheet music selections from Tap's songbook. But unlike the CD, the 3-LP package is limited to 3000 copies and includes a bevy of bonus tracks.
