Name 1 Artist & Group that would best define your Music

[sutnop]

couldn't squeeze the last letter in the subject heading but name one artist and group that would best describe and define the type of music (disco) you like

To make it a bit challenging and not a name dropping orgy
lets stick to naming just
1 Group
and 1 Artist


I will go first:

Group: The Whispers

Artist: Rick James

[sutnop]

Come on people stop being shy
just spit out

Personally when it comes to voices I love
Marvin
But I mean he is way too versatile to be able to label him as descriptive of my music taste....

[eddie]

Group: the O'jays

artist: Stephanie Mills (the stuff with Mtume)

[sutnop]

Gotta luv da stuff with Mtume Eddie

Bring the beef
cause I'm the butcher

[paul]

This was difficult sutnop.

After some thought, here goes.

Artist - Chaka Khan
Group - Chic

[jam master jay]

Not easy at all.

Artist - Teena Marie

Group - Voyage

[DiscoMan]

Group: Chic (and the Tavares brothers).

Artist: this is a tough one but I narrowed it down to Barry White, who in my mind is the definition of Kool and Class.

[Noman]

Soooo Hard to pick just one... Well I don't have to stamp it in my forehead so here we go:

Group; B.T. Express
Artist; Chaka Kahn

[efunk_adelic]

I didn't have much problem with the topic.... it was a matter of what artist/artists still have an impact in your life today.


Group: OHIO PLAYERS

Picked these guys because not only can they "funk" as good as the rest... their LP cuts make them special. Although they don't have the hot lead singer... they were still different and I don't know anybody who likes or appreciates them anymore.

Artist: CHAKA KHAN

It was a toss up between a few... But if I had a wish to meet the person who give you one of the biggest charge would be her. She can do it all. What range in her voice... there's nobody like her.

[Davicillo]

Solo artist; Donna Summer

Group(s); Change & Chic

Lillo is an interesting choice... you must've been a big fan of the debut LP... Back in my DJ days... I pumped the hell out of the hit single "I'm In Love"

[Svend]

Hmm, interesting challenge!

GROUP: First Choice

ARTIST: Teddy Pendergrass (with or without those Bluenotes)

It's all about that Philly sound for me.

Actually I'm a big fan of that "Paul Laurence/Kashif" sound, and basically Paul produced better songs for Melba Moore and Lillo than he did for himself 8)
....of course there were noticable exeptions......"Strung out" being at the top of that list, but you wanted to keep it narrowed down to just 1 entry and just about everyone were naming women, so I thought I'd give the men a little light.... :)
