Meli'sa Morgan has had success using a variety of aliases. But the disco hit as Shades of Love, Keep in Touch from 1982 has to be her most memorable. I know it was one of my major jams back when I was in high school back in suburban Connecticut.
The Ultimix remix service did a fun re-vamp of the song in their #56 issue in 1994. In fact I still have it in my EBay store. ULTIMIX 56

FUNK IT UP THE SWEET
The Sweet were one of those bands in the 70's that consistently was able to provide me with joy.
Formed in 1968 out of the British Glam Rock scene they were able to parlay their success onto the American pop charts only by the second half of the 70's other then with Little Willy which had been a big hit earlier. In the U.K. and in parts of Europe they had a long string of huge hits (in the U.K. alone 13 Top 20 hits in the 70's).
Their 1977 promo only 12" release Funk it Up is quite rare. It is still a high priced collectible and I'll have to admit that at the time the song passed me by completely. Not like Fox on the Run which was a 45 I played to death.

Their last hit single Love is Like Oxygen was a classic. Their harmonizing was outstanding.
