DiDi Anthony - Makin Love 1981

Image
I have the pleasure to present an extremerly rare record 45". It was released on Starborn Records in 1981. Three years ago, I had the opportunity to present another rare record 45" on the same label by Robert Jason . DiDi Anthony  is an unknown singer.  I tried to find information for DiDi Anthony but it was very difficult.   As it seems, she collaborated with Robert Jason and Brian Ross.   Robert Jason was co-writer and arranger. Brian Ross who was also the producer of the Robert Jason record on the same period did the production. The vinyl includes two songs entitled " Makin Love / Cry Like A Baby ". I have chosen a great mellow song entitled " Makin Love ". The lyrics were penned by Lorri Marlow and the music by Robert Jason. Note: The above posted single is not played in full

Roadway Band - One To Many

Image
The last five years, this record has been sold only two times on ebay. I was fortunate to buy one of them. Roadway Band  was probably formed by the drummer and producer Bobby Cohen from North Carolina. He was owner of the label Cohen Records. The singer of the group is Kathy Hawkins who wrote the song " One To Many ". The other song " Break Music " was written by Ray Jackson . Both songs were recorded at Sandcastle Recording Studio in Greenville South Carolina.     In 2009 Kathy Hawkins collaborated with legendary Clarence Carter . Both appeared at Harrah's Tunica Event Center. Next year she released an album CD under the name " Kathy Sings " on Cee Gee Entertainment. Note: The above posted single is not played in full.
