"BREAKAWAY" by Steve Karmen was originally released on United Artists in 1968 following a successful advertising campaign for the Pontiac car, for which the 'jingle' had been written, featuring the slogan "Breakaway In A Wide-Trackin' Pontiac". Karmen extended the 30 second track with fills and breaks building the energy and excitement and creating the perfect dance track for the highly charge Casino Ballroom where it exploded in 1974. Jimmy Radcliffe ad-libbed a new and impassioned vocal for the singles plug-side, but - to this day - it is the thrilling instrumental that rules the dance floor.

Although associated with Wigan Casino, "Breakaway" was originally spun by DJ Colin Curtis at Blackpool Mecca under the imaginative title "Black Ship To Hell" (The Wigan Casino Years by Tim Brown). Today, over 50 years on, it has lost none of its energy and appeal and remains a favourite oldie and guaranteed floor-filler.
