Just to break up the 'sameness' of a lot of new releases here's probably one
of the best modern soul tunes from the 80s from the group that hit with 'The
Sound Of Music'.
They had four other US R&B chart entries but this wasn't one of them.
Their biggest being a cover of Sly & Family Stone's 'Hot Fun In
Summertime' which crossed over to Hot 100 #58.
There are currently none available for sale on Discogs and the last one to
sell sold for £50, even the album 'Feel The Music', from where it comes, now
sells between £20-£50.
As well as 'Promise Me' and 'The Sound Of Music', there are a couple of good ballads on the album 'It Must Be Love' (one of the 5 R&B chart singles) and 'Caught In The Middle', as well as a few 'dodgy' 80s cuts! Also, the album version is slightly longer that the single (4:02 v 3:43) so the album is probably a better 'bang for your buck'.
