Sexy, Sexy, Sexy
Yes, sexy & enterprising Sylvia Robinson (of Sugarhill Fame) has the cure for every man's sickness right in that grail. I'd bet there's a good dose of L.A. Sunshine in there. In here there's lots of slow and sexy jams. Nice one by the fireside. Don't forget to soften the bearskin. I like her first called "Pillow Talk" as well (the cover is even funnier), but this here got synths.
Hope you enjoy it.
Cheers,
Basso

What else than yellow?
I cannot imagine any other colour than yellow..... but I defintely can imagine what it feels to wear a silly yellow suit and even sillier shoes. If my manager or a photographer made me wear stuff like that I'd grunt and groan.
But these guys play incredible music instead and therefor I praise 'em.
Great stuff all the way through. Not your ordinary funky chicken LP but serious and sometimes psychedelic with electric guitars and all that. My favourite part of "All that" is Dexter Wansel's delicious & spacey keyboard work. For the Heads there's a drum break that appears in The D.O.C.'s "Whirlwind Pyramid" and the beautiful "All along the seashore"was used for MF Grimm's "Yes you are" (It took me some time to find that out). My favourite track is the laid back "Happiness" - yes it is.
I LOVE PHILLY!
cheers,

Und ich hör zu
Heidelinde Weis is actually an austrian actress. She recorded this LP
with the help of some great guys like Sigfried Schwab, Fatty George,
Olaf Kübler, Bernie Prock, Dave King, Gary Todd, Todd Canedy
and Kristian Schultze (Xynn, Snowball, and so many more) who also produced this LP.
Very listenable from the first note to the last. This actress really can sing.
Tender bossa tunes beside unobtrusive funky tracks.
Wonderful music and i mean it!!!
Highly recommend especially for german speaking folks, because of the
surprisingly fresh and ironic lyrics dealing with love and life and stuff.
