March 8, 1986: Slave, Mildred Scott, Aleem featuring Leroy Burgess, James Cobbin & Prime Cut, Ruth Dawes

ODDS ‘N’ BODS

WHITNEY HOUSTON, denied as reported a newcomer nomination due to some niggling technicality, went ahead and beat ’em all anyway to win the Grammy for best female vocal, period! … Cherrelle with Alexander O’Neal ‘Saturday Love’ belatedly topped US 12in Sales, Val Young Club Play in Billboard — Val (who seems unlikely for a re-edit now) marred Michael ‘Smoothie’ Gibson from Process And The Doo Rags on Valentine’s Day … Alexander O’Neal contributes a song, ‘The Finest‘, to The SOS Band’s next album (produced of course as he is by Jam & Lewis) … The Chicago Bears’ shufflin’ and tappin’ William ‘The Refrigerator’ Perry is to replace Mr T in ‘The A-Team’ … Effectron, despite earlier assumptions they were British, turn out be a genuine Washington DC go go group, their similarity to Micki Jessup being less than coincidence — he sings the lead! … North Sea pirates are due to be joined by the solid soul WSOL 801, manned by four black DJs, and the pop Stereo Hits 576 (the old Caroline wavelength on MW but in stereo), the 10 strong DJ team being primarily American … Froggy’s seemingly endless six week stay on Capital Radio thankfully did end — a nice guy, he’s just irritatingly inept as a programme presenter … New York remixer Bert Bevins is the latest to tout for work in lucrative London … The Three Degrees (with Miquel Brown filling in for pregnant Helen) have as predicted the first of several remixes already in the can, but amazingly it doesn’t copy anything! … Paul Hardcastle (whose Lenny Henry Crucial Remix is 102⅓bpm) also has a mix with male vocal by Kevin Henry, not necessarily for release … Cameo’s rock radio-aimed 47½/95bpm slowie ‘A Goodbye‘ is being bolstered on 12in twin-pack for funk fans by some vintage oldies, promoed now but due next week … Jive have reissued Sinnamon ‘I Need You Now‘ (JIVE T36), a building 113-114-114½bpm soul burbler that always was a black underground “sleeper” three years ago … Total Contrast’s LP is finally out here (London LONLP 15), as is Juicy’s (Epic EPC 26886), while the continuously mixed ‘The Very Best of “D” Train — 47 Minutes Of Nonstop Dancing‘ (German Prelude 260.07.083) could interest some … Quincy Jones, Isley Brothers (including ‘Shout’) and Isley Jasper Isley (just ‘Caravan Of Love’) are on StreetSounds’ ‘Artists 4‘, a single LP this time … Streetwave are starting another label, Brilliant … A version of ‘(Nothing Serious) Just Buggin’’ in a note perfect 102-0bpm cover briefly appeared here with no artist mentioned on a supposedly French label Hip Hop Juice, the same version but credited to Tin Tin (no relation of Stephen Duffy) also being withdrawn from StreetSounds’ upcoming ‘Electro/Hip Hop 11‘ — at least this silly stunt finally forced Whistle into the shops on UK pressings (incidentally, their TV theme quote, now almost mandatory on hip hop records, is apparently from ‘Green Acres’) … Britain’s Danté, his name nicked in America, will be called Steven Danté when his Colonel Abrams-ish 113½bpm ‘Give It Up For Love‘ comes out at the end of March … EMI lost Roshelle Fleming despite already making some re-edit improvements of their own … Eastbound Expressway’s anthemic ‘You’re A Beat’ will be on Passion —which may be why Record Shack are trying desperately to sway opinion away from the term Eurobeat and back to Hi-NRG! … Seventh Avenue’s horridly jolly Baltimora-sings-Ottowan style 120⅓bpm ‘Love’s Gone Mad‘ (Record Shack SOHOT56) is finally out fully here, other current UK-released Hi-NRG hits including the rattling 132½bpm Divine-ish Lana Pellay ‘Pistol In My Pocket‘ (Sublime WMET 101) and 0-132¼bpm People Like Us ‘Midnight Lover‘ (Passion PASH 12-51), galloping 0-130¾bpm Street Angels ‘One Bite (John Morales Remix)’ (Calibre CABLS 207), 125½bpm Angel Chorus ‘Devil On My Shoulder‘ (10 Records TEN 90-12) and 135bpm Astaire ‘Fire Me Up‘ (Passion PASH 12-52), chugging dated Eurodisco 121¾bpm Eartha Kitt ‘This Is My Life‘ (Record Shack SOHOT61), clumsy crashing 118¾bpm Nicole ‘Don’t You Want My Love?‘ (Portrait TA6933), while — a Sylvester-ish 115bpm bounding throbber with Colonel Abrams touches too — L.I.F.E. ‘All Played Out‘ (US Dance-Sing DS 802) is due here soon on Lovebeat International (LOVT 4) … Grace Jones’ emptily racing (0-)143-145bpm ‘Love Is The Drug (Remix)‘ sounds unnecessary for most jocks … Pal, twin sisters Rhett & Sinden Cellier and chum Rebekha Sweet, were all former secretaries at Motown in the Martha Reeves and Rita (Syreeta) Wright tradition, so it’s a shame their debut 159bpm ‘Talk We Don’t‘ (Motown ZT40562) is so awful … Colonel Abrams’ title now it’s a single in the States is indeed called ‘I’m Not Gonna Let’, without the ‘You’ … Viola Wills although now living in Minneapolis makes a twice weekly 2,000 mile journey to Los Angeles so she can continue studying studio technology at UCLA – crazy! … Frankie Johnson Jnr moves on stage as if a descendant of descriptively nicknamed dancer Snakehips Johnson, except the latter didn’t do a strip (which was then hilariously sent up at Radio London’s Soul Night Out by Tony Blackburn) … Steve Walsh was not at The Hippodrome this Wednesday after all, but Thursday (6) finds Chris Hill kicking off the first weekly “Bognor” DJ-hosted jazz-soul night at Reading Majestic, plus Paul Major & Micky T celebrating Birmingham Pagoda Park’s award for its rocky waterfall decor … Mick James, not Jones (the name given the judges), was the Stourbridge mixing DJ in Birmingham … Midas Media are updating their DJ mailing list on 01-379 0776 … I may no longer be able to review the weekend’s latest newies but the Disco chart remains as up to date as ever and, as you may have noticed, now includes at least the accurate BPM of anything not previously covered … GET LOOSE!

CHAD JACKSON as anticipated won the Technics UK DJ Mixing Championships, with an athletic 10 minute set in which he managed to scratch behind his back, with his elbow, chin and bare foot! Scratch is all he did though, his antics (reminiscent of Jerry Lee Lewis’) obscuring for most judges the more musical worth of runners-up Jon Davis and John Robinson, who were visually exciting too. Jon, a black DJ from Bude in Cornwall, was the mixer whose brilliance I enjoyed and voted for most, while John, who globetrots for the Juliana’s disco chain, did an excellent Madonna medley that was just right for The Hippodrome. Interestingly the best mixers in all the preliminary heats had been from areas well away from London (Chad is from Manchester), which seems to confirm that while London jocks may be too blasé (or frightened!) to enter it’s the provincial DJs with possibly most to gain who try harder. And of the six finalists, four all used the Harleqiun Four’s ‘Set It Off’!

HOT VINYL

SLAVE ‘Thrill Me’ (Certain 12ACERT 6) is another characteristic murkily rolling 112bpm lurcher with exaggerated enunciation and chatter, flipped by a 116½bpm remix of the older ‘Jazzy Lady‘, both being on their LP ‘Unchained At Last’ (Certain LPACERT 1) with the better even more datedly typical 117¾bpm ‘I’d Like To Get You‘. Meanwhile, ex-member Mark Hicks has released as DRAC ‘I Want Your Love‘ (US Ichiban Records 12-104), a choppily chugging 113½bpm version of their type of groove with funky muttering and toy hooter blowing, rather brighter than the real thing but still really only for veteran Slave fans.

MILDRED SCOTT ‘Prisoner Of Love’ (US 4th + B’way BWAY-421)
Detroit recorded in exuberant old Jocelyn Brown style, this solidly strutting 110¼bpm happy jumper leaps along so infectiously it’s already exploding in both soul and gay clubs (two strong dubs too). A biggie!

ALEEM featuring Leroy Burgess ‘Love’s On Fire’ (US Atlantic 0-86825)
Huskily worrying Leroy tells the Fantastic Aleems when to “sing it for me, boys”, rather as Rick James did the Temptations, on a nervily jittering 116¾bpm wriggler full of soul in the fast skittery Colonel Abrams style (good vocal dub/edit flip). It’s a grower.

JAMES COBBIN & PRIME CUT ‘Caught In The Middle’ (US Tuckwood TW 102)
Soulfully sung good jiggly 114¾bpm tugger with wriggly modern electronic backing but a timeless vocal to please purists, maybe not a monster although very satisfying (inst flip).

RUTH DAWES ‘I Love Only You’ (US Profile PRO-7095)
Full of nice soulful traditional values, like strings, this wailing insistent 108½bpm chugger may have too convoluted a song to break out of specialist discos, good though it is (inst flip).

JANET JACKSON ‘What Have You Done For Me Lately’ (A&M AMY 308)
Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis’s starkly smacking taut 114bpm strutter, overshadowed now by her album, here has her Rene & Angela-prod/penned old zingily striding 123¼bpm ‘Young Love‘ added to the flip.

ORIGINAL CONCEPT Can You Feel It?’ (US Def Jam recordings 44-05342)
I only had to mention the Mohawks’ classic The Champ’ from 1968 and here it is, cut up (along with interjections from Bobby Byrd, and apparently a Jacksons concert) all through this hot 0-100⅚bpm hip hop scratcher!

PAZ featuring Marianne Davidson ‘Always There’ (Coda CODS I6T)
Soothingly cooed pleasantly loping (0-)11 3-0bpm jazzy swayer — no, not the Ronnie Laws oldie!

PRINCE AND THE REVOLUTION ‘Kiss’ (Warner Bros/Paisley Park W8751T)
Hitting a brittle groove before then getting very fragmentary, this 111½-108-112-108⅓-0bpm return to his tiny-voiced squeaky soul style of about five years ago nukes a welcome change.

94 EAST ‘Games’ (LP ‘Minneapolis Genius’ US Hot Pink HLP 3223)
Comprising keyboardist Pepe Willie, bassist Andre Cymone, and a certain cat of many colours called Prince, this embryo purple outfit from 1976/7 have had their rambling instrumentals resurrected, remixed and overdubbed (the saxist for instance isn’t credited), best being this 104-104½-105½-104½-105½bpm funkier effort.

SHIRLEY MURDOCK ‘Truth Or Dare (Remix)’ (Elektra EKR36T)
Coyly sung lightweight (0-)121bpm tripper kinds like ‘Oops Up Side Your Head’ meeting ‘Lady Marmalade’ over the ‘Billie Jean’ beat, produced by Roger Troutman and now rather emptily remixed (her album is due too).

JOCELYN BROWN ‘Love’s Gonna Get You’ (Warner Bros W8889T)
Just a little bit late out here, Jellybean’s production of this vocally good though rather lifelessly electro-backed 108bpm jitterer (in four mixes) struck me as a disappointment for Jocelyn but did hang about on import for a while.

UP YAWS ‘Dedicated To – – – – -‘ (Tell It Like It Is Records 2, via RLR 01-868 8637)
An under-the-counter job, the lulling Barry White-ish “lurve” rap intro of this soulfully backed 81-0-79-82- 81½-82⅓bpm tranquil swayer doesn’t prepare one for the insults which follow, mainly a chant that rhymes with “trucking punt”! Find it if you can, but don’t tell Mary Whitehouse where!

FOX THE FOX ‘Precious Little Diamond (Remix)’ (Epic TA6911)
Out several times since 1984 and an international smash practically everywhere except Britain, this 115½bpm Bee Gees-ish Eurobeat shuffler in its new Shep Pettibone remix is currently climbing Stateside and should surely at last have holidaymaker pop appeal here?

HIT NUMBERS

BEATS PER MINUTE for last week’s top 75 entries on 7in (f/c/r for fade/cold/resonant ends):

Sigue Sigue Sputnik (0-)193f vacuous video garbage, Kate Bush 72½/145-0c anxious subtle tension, Whistle 0-102f hot go go hip hop, Electric Light Orchestra (0-)126¼ typical pop chugger, Grace Jones 143½-144¾f unfunky pop, Blow Monkeys 102⅔ hot pop swayer (Marc Bolan sings soul!), Mr Mister 0-89½c pomp rock, James Brown 0-107¾-109f funk classic, Elton John 0-35-0r largely tempoless, Redskins 0-54-110-114¾-0r striking gruff Bruce-ish builder, Total Contrast 117¾ Colonel Abrams-ish disco, Cherrelle 100¼c soul swayer, Matt Bianco 115f jerker, but Mark Fisher’s flying inst 114f jazz-funk flip is what’s selling it.
