YoYo Honey - Groove On - UKCDS - (1991)

Reup: Originally posted by Mickey P 02/05/2008

Mick said: This is the reason I like YoYo Honey so much, the second single prior to the album and another Perfecto Mix. Hardly necessary though because the Club Mix is more than adequate but still, Oakenfold & Osbourne make it silky smooth. This for me, is Shoniwa's finest hour, Groove On does exactly what it says on the can. Infectious, this groove goes straight for the jugular.

The producer behind this excellent groove is Michael Peden who was also a member of The Chimes.

Kymba note: This is a rip from the CD single and as such the tracklist doesn't wholly match Mick's original post images.

Movement 98 - Sunrise 1990

Circa Records YRT 51

This was the follow up to the dancefloor classic Joy and Heartbreak, which I never knew about until I came across it in a secondhand shop. Movement 98 comprised of Paul Oakenfold and Steve Osborne, better known as Perfecto. The full artist credit is Movement 98 featuring Carroll Thompson.

Carroll Thompson is better known (to me) for her Lovers Rock reggae releases, in particular I'm So Sorry from 1981. This release is let down somewhat by a clumsy attempt to include a rap by Cinderella which was the thing at the time. Many releases had a 'without rap' edit included on the 12" but not on this one. I created my own edit and have included it in the rar file. Feel free to use it or delete it as you see fit?

YoYo Honey - Get It On 1991

Zomba Music JIVE CD 281

Another slice of Voodoo Soul, this is one of my favourites. The first single released by YoYo Honey, a year before the album came out. A second single would be released in 1991.

The Radio Mix later became the Album Version. My personal preference is for the Perfecto Mix created by Paul Oakenfold & Steve Osbourne. The Ragga & Dub are the work of Steely & Clevie. Great band, great tune, I wonder what happened to them?
