B.T. (Brenda Taylor)

You Can't Have Your Cake & Eat It Too (12")

Afterhour Records (US) / 1982 / AHR 4100
12" single 33 ⅓ rpm vinyl record
Genre: Dance

This was a local Washington, DC hit. What was amazing about this record is that one of the producers, "Hollywood Breeze" was a Funk / Go Go DJ and owner of a local GoGo Club (Metro Club). R & B DJ here were very surprised that Breeze had produced this record and that it was pure R&B. A class production.

The record was later purchased by West End Records and remixed by David Todd and Nick Martinelli. The remix sweetens the sound, but my personal preference is the original mix shown here, a lot hotter and steamer than the remix. I've uploaded a copy of the remix on the West End label also.
