One of the indie soul killers of the early 80s – one of the few early albums cut for Prelude by James "D Train" Williams, one of the best male vocalists of his time! All the tracks were produced and arranged by keyboardist Hubert Eaves – and that aspect is one of the main ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
One of the most enduring albums on the Prelude label, and a great bit of modern soul by James "D-Train" Williams. Hubert Eaves produced the album, and he added lots of tasty electro keyboards to the set, played with his usual jazzy touches and a nice flourish that gives Williams' voice a ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

A great little bit of modern soul – smooth, with slight jazzy touches, almost in the mode of some of the club-oriented work by Roy Ayers or Norman Connors from the same time. The album features the excellent mellow groove classic "You'll Never Know", plus other cuts with a similar ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

(Original white label promo. Cover has a cut corner – and vinyl is really great overall, but has a very short click right at the start.)
An excellent bit of 80s groove! Unlimited Touch have a cool 2-female lead vocal style – and they keep it tight and soulful on grooves that have a nice tight club sound, in a style that often reminds us of Roy Ayers produced albums, like Ladies Of The 80s, or some of the more uptempo tracks ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Pretty great stuff from Unlimited Touch – grooving here in a sound that's got a bit more of an 80s feel than their previous album, but which still works well for their dual-female vocal lead style. There's a bit of an electro "wheeet" in some of the tracks, but the vocals and the ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album
