Afternoon Dance Break - "Took My Love Away"

"Ellis D" was the pseudonym used by Donald Mattern (originally from Lancaster, PA) when he started DJing in NYC clubs during the the 80's. In 1988 Ellis D released Took My Love Away - which was so good that 5 years later (when I moved from PA to NYC) he was still spinning it. But by that time Donald Mattern AKA "Ellis D" was known as Junior Vasquez and was the superstar DJ at the legendary Sound Factory.
