A stellar mellow groove written and produced by legendary composer & conductor Bill Conti. An overlooked Soul gem taken from the famous 1976 film soundtrack "Rocky" released on Liberty Records. It's worthy to note that the following year of 1977, singer Nelson Pigford composed the classic "It's ecstasy when you lay down next to me" for Barry White.
Very hard-to-find Japanese 7" single with a smooth sound strongly influenced by Philly!!! In fact this track is the flip side to the A-side entitled "Last train". Much later Noriko became famous as "MIMI" in the R&B scene. This rare single was released on Trio Records circa late '70s only in Japan.
Philly sound MASTERPIECE!!! Written, arranged, produced and conducted by the great THOM BELL. The orchestration is beyond compare. The melody is pure heaven and guess what.......the singer is white!!! Taken from the brilliant 1979 movie soundtrack "The fish that saved Pittsburgh" released on Lorimar Records. Miss this LP at your peril.
Amazing soulful collaboration between Filipina singer MARLENE de la PENA and U.S. band SEAWIND. The posted track is an exquisite groove co-written by Leon Ware and Richard Rudolph. Taken from her rare 1982 LP "Summer nights" released on CBS/Sony Records only in Japan. This rare record was recorded in California U.S.A. and then mixed in Tokyo Japan.
The Queen of Sexy Soul seduces our senses with an erotic stepper which appeared only on 7" single as a B side to "Next time I see you" released in 1974 on Vibration Records. If you are into Sexy Soul, do yourself a favor and buy her CD entitled "Pillow talk: The sensuous sounds of Sylvia" on Rhino Records.
Brilliant slow-steppin' soulful groove by deep-voiced Marvin Sease. Taken from his 1988 LP "Breakfast" released on London Records.
This time we have something special. An exclusive version of the single "Body & soul". Starts with a phone intro, while in the middle of the tune you can hear an erotic dialogue between Tawatha Agee and James Mtume in the bathtub!!!
