lover's rock (slight re-return)
Kofi's first group - and Caron Wheeler's too
on the actual Lover's Rock label
One of the later Brown Sugar singles, there's another group on the flipside, doing this song - which I half thought would be some kind of oblique inspiration to PiL's "Albatross", but it turns out to be a cover of the (early, Peter Green era) Fleetwood Mac hit!
And same side of the 7 inch also features this nice Brown Sugar version of Deniece Williams's "Free"
Any excuse to play this gorgeous Kofi tune again - and the excuse is the fact-tidbit that in addition to vocalling she also played the bass on it
