Trax featured Margie Joseph, THP Orchestra, Fatback Band, Shawn Christopher

Stop in the name of love  –  Margie Joseph (Margie took “The Supremes” hit and added a ‘monologue’ to it – in the same way that Isaac Hayes was doing to cover versions about the same time … today it would have been known as ‘Margie’s Rap’)

Two hot for love  –  THP Orchestra (Three Hats Productions – a Canadian studio trio releases their ‘Magnum Opus’ on Disco label specialists “Butterfly Records” … lead vocals courtesy of  Barbara Fry)

Mr. Bass Man  –  Fatback Band  (New York’s “Street-Funk” pioneers drops this little nugget – available from their album “Keep on Steppin'” on Event/Spring Records … this was remixed for their ‘Remixed’ album project)

Sweet Freedom  –  Shawn Christopher (Chicago-an ‘House Diva’ gives her all’ on this ‘re-do’ – produced by Eric Kupper for his own ‘Hysteria Records’ … originally written by U.K’s Rod Temperton for the movie “Running Scared”)

Trax feat. Trey Lorenz, France, Joli, New York Port Authority, Shawn Christopher

It all comes back around  –  Trey Lorenz (Trey is known for his duet with Mariah Carey  … after releasing his debut album in ’92, it was over 10 years before the follow up … sub-titled “Mimi presents Trey Lorenz” – the album also features Mariah Carey, her nickname being ‘Mimi’)

Playboy  –  France Joli (France’s first album was the beginning of the Canadian assault on Disco music … produced by Tony Green & recorded in Marko studios but fine-tuned/mixed at Alpha in Philadelphia, U.S.A. – this self-titled album was released on Prelude Records)

I used to hate it (til i ate it) –  New York Port Authority (Named after the New York’s bus station and their transport services … this sextet recorded one album for superstar the writers/arrangers/producers ‘Holland/Dozier/Holland’  – owners of Invictus Records)

Make my love  –  Shawn Christopher (Shawn released a few singles before blasting out on one of Chicago’s most important & iconic House labels – DJ International Records … this trak was released on BTB)
