Description
At last, these two glorious rare groove classics are legally back on 7”. For the first time they are longer than the original 7” with all the essence of the full length 12” versions. Unlike bootlegs, these come from the original tape sources Roy Ayers first produced with all his finesse for his Uno Melodic label in 1980. Sylvia Striplin sang in Eighties Ladies and Aquarian Dream, but she’s best remembered for these two songs from her one album “Give Me Your Love”.
A-Side – “Give Me Your Love”
An uptempo disco groover for the more discerning dancefloor. Sylvia’s glorious vocals float over a sumptuous uptempo Roy Ayers track. Sampled by Armand Van Helden, Deepdown and Madd Rapper.
B-Side – “You Can’t Turn Me Away”
A soul breakbeat classic. Deep downtempo business, this shows Roy Ayers at the height of his powers and Sylvia more than does the track justice. Beautiful! The instantly recognisable bassline was sampled by Notorious BIG/Junior Mafia on ‘Get Money’. Also sampled by Naughty By Nature and Backstreet Boys.
Tracklist:
A – Give Me Your Love (4:34)
B – You Can’t Turn Me Away (4:31)
