When i give my love this time  –  Phyllis Hyman (She was a six foot plus  stunning beauty with a talent to match but sadly a very troubled lady and like us all – she wanted the people in her life to be there for positive reasons only)

Bad Reputation  –  Ritchie Family (Even though there were a constant change in the vocalists their reputation was anything but bad …  featuring the group Gypsy Lane with added session musicians as their backing band … the type of trak to go ‘into overdrive’ on the dance floor)

Feed me your love  –  Fatback Band (From their lp ‘Yum Yum’ …. a sleeper trak that is being awakened more and more as the ‘Funkateers’ dig deep into Funk history   … an original Spring recording…  saw this band in 1975 at The Odeon Hammersmith London)

Time for love  –  Kim English (‘The Queen of Nervous Records’ mash-up the place with this “Friburn & Urik” tribal remix … written by Byron Stingily and Byron Burke formally of ‘Ten City’)

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)

Power of one  –  Donna Summer (Written by Mervyn Warren formerly of Take Six and Mark Chait – arranged & produced by David Foster  … mixed at the curiously named  Barking Dog Studios  …. i can see this song as been the one that will be used in television competitions that brings fame and fortune)

Sooner or later  –  Giorgio ( Whilst still working on Donna Summer’s records Giorgio Moroder was also making a name for himself as an artist in his own right  …  released on his own Oasis Records label  …  he had previously recorded ‘Son of my father’ which was a hit for Chicory Tip)

I got it  –  New York Port Authority (Assigned to Holland/Dozier/Holland’s re-activated Invictus Records …  this sextet only released one lp to critical acclaim which has since been released on cd)

Sunshine Hotel  –  Jamie Lewis & Nick Morris (Also knows as Jamie Lewis and Nick Morris presents “The Last Days of Disco part one ”  …  a cover version of the Richard T. Bear original of the same name)
