I DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET A COPY,BUT THIS IS THE STORY BEHIND IT.
WE HAD JUST FINISHED "BAND TOGETHER" AND GRAND SLAM" WITH JOHN RYAN PRODUCING, 1978.THERE ARE MANY COMMON LINKS WITH TAKA OVER THE YEARS.SHE WAS WITH P-FUNK....I PLAYED ON THE FIRST ALBUM(FUNKADELIC).SHE WAS WITH THE GAP BAND....THE BASSIST(ROBERT WILSON) PLAYED ON OUR ALBUM.SHE WAS WITH UNDISPUTED TRUTH....THE WHITFIELD LINK.IT ALMOST STOOD TO REASON WE WOULD HOOK UP SOONER OR LATER.
JOHN PRODUCED HER ALBUM AT THE SAME STUDIO THAT WE WERE WORKING AT(SOUND CITY,L.A.),1979. HE ASKED REGGIE,PETER,MARK,GABE,AND MYSELF TO PLAY ON THE RECORD.WE PLAYED ON ALL BUT ONE TRACK...."CLOUD DANCER".THAT SONG WAS DONE BY ANOTHER PRODUCER.
THE SINGLE WENT INTO THE TOP 20.IT WAS HER BIGGEST HIT.
Thanks for the background info on the album Ray, I will dig my copy out and play it over the weekend, as it has been quite some time since I last gave it a spin.
