Dance lady dance  –  Crown Heights Affair (Assigned to RCA for one album only before hot-footing to independent ‘De-lite Records’ for the rest of their career … although they didn’t seem to be very successful it’s because they splintered into such outfits as ‘The Strikers’, Empress, Unlimited Touch & others)
