"OOOH I desire you...you're truly a fantasy" --"Don't Make Me Wait" (1982) by NYC Peech Boys


"This is virtually an encyclopedia of N.Y.C. dance music--no microchips anywhere carry so much verve, sex, or grit. Only in N.Y.C., however, do people dance a whole lot to encyclopedias, and I fear that if "Don't Make Me Wait" didn't convert the great out-there then the rest of this is doomed to a life of obscurity."--Christgau's Record Guide: Rock Albums of the Seventies (1990) by Robert Christgau


"Sinnamon's "Thanks to You", D-Train's "You're The One For Me" and The Peech Boys' "Don't Make Me Wait" [...] took things in a different direction with their sparse, synthesized sounds that introduced dub effects and drop-outs that had never been heard before."--"The History of House" (1989) by Phil Cheeseman
