Little is known about Louisiana born vocalist Carol “Zorina” London other than that at some point in her early adolescence she moved to the Bay View area of San Francisco, a city that she would remain in for most of her professional career. Zorina showed promise early on as a professional model, winning both the Top Bay Area Model Award and the Knights of Honour Beauty Pageant in 1972, while also moonlighting at San Francisco’s Playboy Club. She would manufacture her experiences into a singing career, working with the likes of comedian Prof. Irwin Corey, Carol Channing and Randy Crawford....
The first album from Bronx based outfit the Rhythm Makers, who went on to form GQ. Superlative disco-funk, recorded on Vigor which was a subsidiary of De-lite—this pressing reissued courtesy of Be With Music. Recorded and mixed in Philadelphia at the De-Lite Recorded Sound Studio, the signature is similar to other contemporary disco-funk groups on De-lite; think Made in USA, Crown Heights Affair, even some of Kool and the Gang’s mid-seventies output. When the album originally came out, a big club track in the UK and the US was Zone, pressed up as a UK seven on Polydor and in the...

Johnny Britt returns with a strong album ft Tom Browne, George Benson, Peter White and will Downing and Arlo Parks has a new album. Don Glori has...
Cosmic keyboardist Lonnie Liston Smith recorded Reflections of a Golden Dream in 1976 for Bob Thiele's Flying Dutchman label. This album came during the same year as the album Renaissance, released on RCA, although it inhabits similar musical territory to his now classic Expansions album released a year prior in 1975; genre defining jazz-funk and soul-jazz, tinged with kaleidoscopic instrumentation, spiritual timbres and a space-age, inter-galactic ambience. Up until this point in his career as a leader, Smith had played with Art Blakey, Miles Davis, Gato Barbieri, Rahsaan Roland Kirk, Max Roach and Pharoah Sanders, the latter bringing him into...
