In this Series of Posts, I will writing about a Particular Classic Soul/Funk Album from the 60’s 70’s and 80’s
The one’s that stand out in my Mind, as The Best Soul/Funk/Jazz/R&B Albums ever Released. All of them, I purchased on Vinyl many Years ago and also now have them on CD or Digital Download today.
You may have a Differing view (as we all do) on these Choices, but these are my Favorites!
Number 17…….DAYTON…….FEEL THE MUSIC
Dayton Released their 4th Out Of 5 Career Albums on the Capitol Record label in 1983, it was called “Feel the Music”
It was Produced by Rahni Harris apart from Track 5 which was Produced by Roger Troutman, incidentally all the Troutman Brothers appeared on the Track!
Only One Track made the US R&B Charts, that was “It Must Be Love” which reached Number 54!
My Favorite Track on the Album is “Promise Me” I’ve Played this Track more than the Rest put Together!
Another Great Track on the Album was “Sound Of Music” which was Very Popular on the UK Dance Scene.
Not Forgetting the Zapp Produced Track “Love You Anyway”
The Track’s I liked the Least are “Eyes” its a Sort of Rock Track, and the Reggae Sounding “Looking Up”
The Track Listing:
01. Sound of Music
02. It Must Be Love
03. Out Tonight
04. So What
05. Love You Anyway
06. Caught in the Middle
07. Eyes
08. Promise Me
09. Lookin’ Up
02. It Must Be Love
03. Out Tonight
04. So What
05. Love You Anyway
06. Caught in the Middle
07. Eyes
08. Promise Me
09. Lookin’ Up
As with all their Releases, Dayton Changed quite a lot of their Personnel with this Album, Originally the band were formed by a Couple of Members from the Band “Sun”
