I was gonna post his song "For Your Love",but it's not on Youtube

"A Fantasy Love Affair"
"Do You Wanna Get Funky With Me"
"You Should Do It"
"The Singer's Become A Dancer"
"For Your Love"
"Dance With Me"
"It's True What They Say About Love"
"Without Love"



This album is a pleasant surprise.Because of the hit single "Dance With Me",many people thought that this would be a disco album,but it's far from it.Several tracks have a Steely Dan vibe....mellow and melodic.The hypnotic "For Your Love" is simply amazing....a breezy,intoxicating,soulful Quiet Storm number that feels like a lazy summer afternoon."The Singer's Become A Dancer" is another surprise,and the album closes with a haunting little song "Without Love" that feels more like a brief interlude.Great stuff!

"Dance With Me" is my favorite, then "Do You Wanna Get Funky With Me".

This is the most underrated and least appreciated masterpiece!!

I remember my cousin having this album when we were in middle school. I
always dug this album. I remember always hearing Do You Wanna Get Funky
and Dance With Me on the radio before going off to school. Listening to
my cousin's album i also like You Should Do It and For Your Love.
The latter is nice and breezy just like you stated.

The song was off the Album "Snap" which featured the hit "They Only Come Out At Night".

phunkdaddy said:

Such a superb album "For Your Love" takes me to another place! That song is amazing.

SoulAlive said:

Yeah i'm pissed i couldn't find it on youtube.

Did you guys know that Peter Brown wrote "Material Girl",which was a major hit for Madonna in 1985?

SoulAlive the song was written by Peter Brown and Roberta Rans, Nile Rodgers produced the track.

SoulAlive said:

No WAY! Learn somethin' every day, don't we? After he recorded stuff on the TK distributed label, Drive Records, he had another club hit in '84 on Columbia called, "They Only Come Out at Night" from his album, "Snap." Not sure if that's available on CD, but I'm sure it's out there for download. It's GOTTABE! It was TIGHT!

"Zie Zie Won't Dance" is great fun. Thanks guys. Had no idea about this artist.

People try to post his stuff from that first album there, but Youtube keeps taking it down, claiming that it violates copyright--I know, I tried to upload a few myself,
