Kashif, Send Me Your Love

Addicted to this album at the moment. It's immense. He was marketed as a rival to Prince by his record company at the time. Not quite, but this is great.

This instrumental track is a good way in, but it's all fantastic:

You can probably pick this up for a few quid even in an over-priced second hand record shop, and it's worth it. SUMMER RECORD.

That beautiful Change record upthread is a Jam & Lewis production, by the way, and I am really enjoying their stuff at the moment, particularly:

Thelma Houston, Qualifying Heat
Cheryl Lynn 'Encore'
The SOS Band tracks
Janet Jackson Control Remixes
The Cherelle tracks
Ralph Tresvant debut album esp. 'Sensitivity'

Love this band in small doses, especially this languid, off-kilter, tender thing:
