Knight also hooked up with Aaron Zigman and produced some rnb hits in the late 80's. The few I own (and like):-
"power of persuation" Pointer Sisters "Save the best for me" Bunny Debarge "say it again" Jermaine Stewart And no doubt a few more songs that I own that were produced by him (and Zigman) that I cant think of right now. | |

Not so long ago,I found his first solo album on vinyl....the album with "Overnight Sensation".There's another great jam on that album..."Joy Ride". | |

I know, it's been years since I'd heard it, I had the same reaction!! ... " I've got six things on my mind --you're no longer one of them." - Paddy McAloon, Prefab Sprout | |

"She's Got To Be (A Dancer)" was a sho-nuff jam that a lot of folks don't remember until they hear it again. Andy is a four letter word. | |
