Funk Deluxe info please!

I was listening to a Winamp radio station and "This Time" by a group named Funk Deluxe came on. Anybody have any info on this group?
Sounds like early 80s stuff very much in the Skyy vain. Could easily have been a Randy Muller production. Even the female lead sounds familiar to me.
I like this track a lot and wanna know more....

thanks.

One of my favourites from that era, and you're spot on about Randy Muller. Take a listen to Tender Lovin', the other top tune they did.

Another couple of lesser known songs I have are Take It To The Top (good) and Friends (not so good).

'Tender Lovin'' was very popular and released on a Ram's Horn 12 - I think 'Dance It Off' was on the flip. The LP was originally on Salsoul in the US. The group returned in 1988 with 'I Surrender', which was quite a good garage/house item but it's dated fairy badly.
