    Here we go for another faily easy track to be identified. It's not George Duke. Nasal female voice from 1981-82.
    It goes something like:

    Shiiiiiiine
    Shine on

    There was a record by a group called Starlette ( I think) in 1981 in the UK called Shine On. Is that it?

    I believe that around the firste years of the 80's there was a "Shine On" 12" on one of the subsidiares labels of Atlantic records (The pale grey one) and it was by a band called Orient Express.

    the song you are searching for is

    Celena Duncan - Shine on, RCA 1981

    The same song was recorded by Orient Express in 1982 - with male lead vocals

    Oh god yes, I forgot about that one. Celena Duncan went on to have a bit of a hi-nrg career in the mid-80's being another diva to get the Ian levine treatment but by this time he was past his best with that genre i.e.Miquel brown, 7th Avenue, Evelyn Thomas etc.

    Ms Duncan did possibly have a generic oeuvre Marky but you know I'm not one to gossip!

    Ah!!! the inimitable Mr. Pecs & I meet again!!! :grin:

    Actually, the record I was referring to is called simply "Do It" from 1982 on an RCA Import from England; produced and co-written by Sandy Linzer of Dr. Buzzard fame.

    Anyone know this one???

    No I dont but I'd like to hear it. I love that Sandy Linzer sound. Its got to be better than the Ian Levine produced one that I've got.
