Forgotten One-Shot Divas

Someone earlier had mentioned Joyce Kennedy. She did a duet with Jeffrey Osbourne in 1984 called "The Last Time I Made Love" which was a big hit on the r&b charts. I've got the album with this on called "Lookin For Trouble". I've never heard or seen anything by her since.

Also earlier mentioned was Ullanda McCullough. I know she did a lot of backup vocals in the 80's and recorded her own solo album in 1981 titled Ullanda McCullough with the hits Warm & Gentle Explosion, Rock Me & Bad Company. I've never heard anything by her since. I seem to recall one of these tracks being played in the clubs I use to frequent.

Vivian Vee released several 12 inch singles - sorry song titles escape me at the moment after "Give Me A Break".

Remember the group Cheri ? They had a hit "Murphy's Law " . Fronted by Lynn Cullierier and Rosalind Hunt (daughter of Geraldine Hunt and if I remember sister Of Freddie James)

So, what was it with Geraldine Hunt? I guess she figgered that if SHE had a recording contract that the whole FAMILY had to have recording contracts as well!

I once ran into the whole clan on a street in Montreal. Geraldine,Rozlyn,Freddie,the grandmother and a bunch of others and they walked by a huge record store. Freddie stood there in the middle of the sidewalk checking out the window and didn't see his 2nd album anywhere.He went inside,the whole clan waited outside and as he got out of the store ; a clerk was removing a rock album and inserting Freddie's Lp instead.

I never forgot this scene...we're talking a mob of at least 15 people.
