Solid (as a rock) Ashford & Simpson 1984,
8 minutes 13 second 😃
(Live in Montreux)
---------------------------------------------
Solid" is a song recorded by American husband-and-wife song writing duo Ashford & Simpson, released in September 1984 as the first single from their eleventh studio album, Solid (1984). It peaked at number one on the US Billboard soul chart and number 12 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
The song was written by the duo and follows a similar template of most of their hits for other artists, except with a slight 1980s inflection to the music. In the lyrics, the narrators of the song celebrate the fact that, through all the difficulties and problems their relationship has faced, they made their love stronger by learning how to forgive and trust each other, and their love for one another remains "solid as a rock".

Marc Sadane - One minute from love 1982, *Biography by Ron Wynn* Vocalist Marc Sadane went from his hometown of Savannah, Georgia to New York City to study fashion design at the Fashion Institute of Technology. But he soon found music more to his liking, and became lead singer for Tungsten Steele. He departed for a solo career in 1977 and became the vocalist for the house band at Mikell's. Sadane toured with Stephanie Mills and got so much acclaim and response that he signed a solo deal with Warner Bros. in the early '80s. But while he proved a capable, sometimes captivating singer in the Urban Contemporary mode, he was unable to generate any commercial success with either his singles or albums. Not even the production and writing skills of the Mtume/Lucas team could garner Sadane any hits. He dropped out of the music business from 1982 to 1988, then recorded the single "Why Can't You Believe In Me" which was produced by Darryl Payne and included on Payne's LP Past Present & Future. source allmusicguide

Gereldine Hunt - Gotta give a little love 1980, Hunt began her recording career as a teenager with several singles released from 1962: she had her first glimmer of success in 1970 when "You & I" a duet with Charlie Hodges reached No. 45 on the R&B chart in Billboard and in 1972 Hunt's remake of "Baby I Need Your Loving" reached No. 47 In 1975, Hunt relocated to Montreal, Quebec where she recorded her first album in 1978, the disco-oriented Sweet Honesty. In 1980, Hunt's second album No Way yielded the track "Can't Fake the Feeling" which reached No. 1 on the club chart in Billboard where it spent a total of seven weeks: with top 40 radio then being disco-resistant "Can't Fake the Feeling" had a small mainstream success reaching No. 58 R&B. However the track did afford Hunt a hit in France at No. 10 and charted in the UK at No. 44. In 1982, she helped write and produce some of the music for Chéri. In 2014, Hunt was honored for her contributions to composing and publishing music at the 25th Anniversary SOCAN Montreal Gala Celebrates Music Creators and Publishers. Gereldine Hunt was the mother of three children; Rosalind Hunt of the musical group Chéri singer Freddie James and professor/writer Jeanne Croteau. She had seven grandchildren. On October 27. 2022, she passed away with a cause. R.I.P
Weeks & Co - Good to the last drop 1983. Weeks & Co was composed of Richie Weeks (lead vocals, keyboards and percussions) and Jocelyn Brown, Elaine Gaskins, Meli'sa Morgan, Margaret Blount again with another top selection of NYC musicians. On this release, Richie Weeks expands his productions, bringing in a lot more drum machines and electronic sounds, pioneering the sound of NYC’s dance music. “Weeks & Co” is a fantastic Disco, Funk and proto house LP including the classic “If You’re Looking For Fun”, “Rock Candy”, “Tunnel Of Love”, “Knock, Knock” and more. Legendary engineer Shep Pettibone and Richie Weeks are again on mixing duties. Jerome Derradji and Past Due Records are proud to reissue this fantastic album as a remastered Dj Friendly DLP featuring bonus tracks such as Shep Pettibone’s 12” Master Dub Version of “If You’re Looking For Fun” and the original version of “Rock Your World”.
