Trax feat. Miki Howard, D C LaRue, The Equals, Ten City

Love under new management  –  Miki Howard (Ex-Side Effect leading lady – The Elektra years … nothing like leading a blind horse to a pasture, it can smell the grass but just don’t know the way to it – are a snippet of the lyrics)

Cathedrals  –  D.C. LaRue (one of the early batch of 12″ before it was quickly deleted due to the closing of it’s distributing company Roulette Records)

Funky like a train  –  The Equals (12″ mix had gathered momentum as a bona-fide U.K. funk classic)

Superficial People  –  Ten City (12″ mixed by Steve ‘Silk’ Hurley – but the lp/cd trak is also potent)

Trax features Angela Bofill, John Davis & The Monster Orchestra, Locksmith, Jasper Street Company

 

Under the moon and over the sky – Angela Bofill (Jazz/Soul chanteuse whose best work was on GRP prod. by Dave Grusin & Larry Rosen)

Up jumped the devil – John Davis & The Monster Orchestra (the devil is always play the best trax –  and was since been remixed/re-edited by 6th Borough District)

Unlock the funk  – Locksmith (a funk that’s still worth unlocking … prod. by Harvey ‘Til you take my love’ Mason)

God help those who help themselves – Jasper Street Company (another name for The Basement Boys … take it to church)

Trax feat. Phyllis Hyman, Sunshine, B T Express, Studio Nova

 

Living all alone – Phyllis Hyman (Sophisticated soul on Philly International from a lady who died too young)

Take it to the zoo – Sunshine (Dara & Mary Bernard  – the real life sisters of Donna Summer … trak from ‘Thank God it’s Friday ‘ –  a Disco movie feat. Donna Summer)

Peace Pipe – B.T.Express (or Brooklyn Transit Express as their original name was prod. by Jeff Lane feat. lead vocals by Barbara Joyce)

The reason we took it underground  – Studio Nova (features an ‘essence’ of  ‘Give me love – Cerrone’ released on Chicago’s After Hours)
