The Greatest performance of my life  –  Loleatta Holloway (Loleatta joined the Gospel group “The Caravans” before going solo – she later joined Salsoul Records under the direction of Philadelphian Norman Harris & husband Floyd Smith as co-managers/producers … the most sampled female vocalist in history)

Trax feat.Roberta Flack, Loleatta Holloway, Wuf Ticket, Kym Mazelle

Reverend Lee – Roberta Flack (this sista went to church to do more than worship)

The Greatest performance of my life – Loleatta Holloway (the most ‘sampled’ female singer in the history of recorded music – and you can hear why – even though it’s not justified)

The Key – Wuf Ticket (a monster boogie trak with a positive message)

I’m a lover – Kym Mazelle (early Chicagoan house diva – prod. by Marshall Jefferson)
