Today’s trax

 

 

Dear Lover  –  Teena Marie (In the sixties they did not put black artist(s) photograph(s) on the cover of their records as white people might not/won’t buy them  – Motown Records did the reverse  with this lady’s first lp, but talent is talent regardless the colour of the person …  judge for yourself)

Love Pains  –  Yvonne Elliman (After signing to R.S.O Records – Yvonne had a few minor hit singles and a major one that was featured on Saturday Night Fever O.S.T. …. this is the Robert Stigwood Organisation single however there was also a re-recording of it on Bill Motley’s Moby Dick Records)

High on Disco  –  Nytro (This eight piece self-contained unit was arranged them but produced by Norman Whitfield and released on Whitfield Records – a unit of  WEA Records also the home of Rose Royce  …  forget the title – this is pure unadulterated Funk)

Breathe don’t stop  –  Mr. On vs Jungle Brothers (Jungle Brothers seems to have massive underground hits that never quite manages to go overground – i had hoped this would’ve done it for them  … rapped over ‘Don’t stop ’til you get enough – Michael Jackson sample  … this is a trak to get the party started)
