Today’s trax

 

 

Harlem  –  Bill Withers (Songsmith extraordinaire … Bill came to the world’s ears via Sussex Records – head honcho Clarence Avant usually left his artists to create their magic without interference which was obviously the right decision hence the now classics Bill has written)

Tried, tested and found true – Ashford & Simpson (After leaving Motown Records where they were primarily known as writers – they pacted with Warner Brothers where they used the cream of the East Coast session musicians … this was from their ‘So Satisfied’ lp – released in 1977)

Stimulation  –  The Strangers (Hubert Eaves known as the brains behind ‘D-Train’, drummer Howard King and guitarist Edward Moore put together this one-off studio project for Salsoul Records)

Let yourself go   –  Sybil (Assigned to Next Plateau Records and produced by James Bratton her releases were instant underground dance floor action in the mainly black music based clubs … Champion Records were the U.K. licensee)
