The lead song \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic ;\"\u003eIt's Been So Long\u003c\/span\u003e became one of her signature club anthems and a fan-favorite, celebrated for its infectious house-inflected beat, soaring vocals, and extended remix that perfectly captured the energy of New York’s underground dance scene. Notably, this 12-inch single marked one of the earliest collaborations between Moore and the emerging sound of house music pioneers, helping bridge classic soul diva styling with the new electronic dance movement. The extended and instrumental versions included on the vinyl remain highly sought-after by DJs and collectors for their timeless dance-floor power. While several mixes exist, the \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic ;\"\u003eIt's Been So Long\u003c\/span\u003e track itself achieved strong club play and enduring popularity within the garage and house communities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Record Vision","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52793634488601,"sku":"V-15280","price":6.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0992\/6937\/8329\/files\/LP-melba_moore-its_been_so_long_12_single.jpg?v=1783553784","url":"https:\/\/record-vision.myshopify.com\/products\/v-15280","provider":"Record Vision","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
