How many of you all were diggin The System I was diggin this duo back in the 80's. Remeber these jams:
You Are In My System This Is For You Don't Disturb This Groove These two guys were very innovative and had a sound all there own. Mic Murphy had a kick ass vocal unlike anyone out back then. Anyone know what they are up to today? | |

"Heartbeat of the City" also had that stutter groove of "You Are In My System". It's been written that they were producers or players on Chaka Khan's cover of Prince's "I Feel for You", Mtume's "Juicy Fruit", Phil Collins' "Sussudio" and Angela Bofill's "Can't Slow Down". They supposedly disbanded 1989 however they released an album in 2K called "ESP". Don't know how it sounds. Nice group while it lasted.

Cosign. "Don't Disturb This Groove" was and still is my jam. I listen to it even now, it is one song that I can never get sick of.  
DON'T DISTURB THIS GROOVE The System (Murphy/Frank) I'm in Heaven Pay attention are you listening you're my favorite girl Excuse me for the moment I'm in another world On a mountain by a fountain Flowers blooming everywhere With Venus and Cupid the picture's very clear Hang the sign upon the door say don't disturb this groove Just a way to say that I'm so into you And the feelings so real don't disturb this groove Erotic whispers for the listener the passion starts again And the lollipops and everything a little taste of sin Causing fire and desire in this mortal soul to live Till the angels fall from Heaven and the day the earth stood still Hang a sign upon the door it says don't disturb this groove Just a way to say that I'm so into you and the feeling's so real Don't disturb this groove 'cause I want to tell you that I'm so into you And the feeling's so real don't disturb this groove Close your eyes and let the music put you in the groove (can you feel it) Baby just lock the door and turn the phone off it's time it's time for me and you Are you ready 
Hang the sign upon the door say don't disturb this groove Just a way to say that I'm so into you and the feeling's so real Don't disturb this groove 'cause I want to tell you that I'm so into you And the feeling's so real don't disturb this groove 'Cause we're grooving baby a-grooving baby And I love it baby and I love it baby love it baby [This message was edited Wed Mar 10 16:34:40 2004 by psychodelicide] RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |

I loved this group! My favorite song by them is "I Just Wanna Make You Feel Good". "This Is For You" was a jam as well, and so was their updated version of "You Are In My System" from their 2000 ESP album. | |

Their last album wasn't bad at all. I'd like to hear some more song-writing & production work from David Frank. He jump started Christina's career with Genie. First time I heard that song I thought it sounded like vintage Sytem. Bringing Together Five Decades of R&B/Funk/Soul/Dance

You know, I seem to remember that song "This is For You". Didn't the lyrics go, in part, "This is for you...it's the most I can do..."? Now that I think about it, it sounded like a song that The System would release. RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |
