ALRIGHT, ALRIGHT, HERE I AM
for the past two weeks i've been obsessed with the music of FREDA PAYNE. i've known FREDA as a friend for several years, but i'm embarrassed to say i knew very little of her music. before a couple of weeks ago, i was only familiar with the two #1 records she had.
yes, i've owned one of her greatest hits cd's for well over ten years now, and last year in TORONTO i bought another of her greatest hits packages entitled UNHOOKED GENERATION, but it wasn't until my buddy MATHEOS gave me the remixes he did of BAND OF GOLD and BRING THE BOYS HOME that i dug up her early seventies catalog and fell head over heels in love.
yesterday, BOBBY SHAW sent me PAYNE & PLEASURE from 1974, an album she did after she left HOLLAND/DOZIER/HOLLAND. now, i'm hell bent on finding the two disco albums she recorded at CAPITOL RECORDS in 1978.
here is a list of my favorite FREDA PAYNE tracks:
Deeper And Deeper The Easiest Way To Fall Right Back Where We Started From You Brought The Joy Suddenly It's Yesterday Love On Borrowed Time Just A Woman Come Back Cherish What Is Dear To You Band Of Gold Bring The Boys Home Mama's Gone
