ex-Shalamar/ Soul Train Dancer Debut, April 27, 2008
This review is from: Skinny Boy (Audio CD)
This is the debut album from original Shalamar ("Dead Giveway", "Second Time Around"..)member and former mid 70's Soul Train dancer Jeffrey Daniels. The album is a mixture of mostly electronic dance oriented songs strongly influenced by Daniels visits to England where at some point in time he hosted a "Soul Train" type music program in England. This album did not sell well in the U.S.,however it faired better in Europe where it appears Daniels career continues to thrive. He was also married to the R&B vocalist Stephanie Mills (played Dorothy in the Broadway production of "The Wiz", and had a very succesfull solo career on MCA from the early 80's to the early 90's with hits such as" Never seen love like this before" ,"Home" etc..)for a period in the late 70's. For anyone interested in early 80's techno dance/funk will find this disc although "dated" in it's sound might still find it interesting enough at the going price.
