Jean Carn [1978] - Don't Let It Go To Your Head [PIR #ZS8 3654]

In the 50th anniversary year for Philadelphia International Records here's an 'unsung' classic.  It's an absolute 'scandal' that only one of Jean Carn's singles ever crossed over to pop charts, and that one was under the auspices of Norman Connors on a duet with Michael Henderson with 'Valentine Love'.

I think I should do a profile on her as she has so many great recordings. Tracks like 'If You Wanna Go Back', '(No, No) You Can't Come Back Now', 'My Love Don't Come Easy', 'Was That All It Was', 'Bet Your Lucky Star', 'Sweet And Wonderful', 'I'm Back For More' (with Al Johnson), 'We Got Some Catching Up To Do', 'The Sweetest Pain' (with Dexter Wansel), 'Sweet And Wonderful', 'Ain't No Way', 'Closer Than Close' and that's just a dozen off the top of my head, there are many others.

Imani Feat. Oscar Ornelas [2010] - Rollin' [Bong Mines]

On first hearing, this reminds me of Erykah Badu's 'On And On' (not sure if it's sampled).  It's definitely got samples of Al Johnson & Jean Carn's 1980 classic 'Back For More'.

This is Imani's debut release and is from a projected album 'YEAR 3076'
