SLAVE part 4

By the time of the 1982 "Visions of the Lite" Album was released (on Cotillion) Steve Arrington had left the Band, but there were 3 new Members, Ronny Cochran, Delbert C Taylor & Marvin Wheatley!

The best track on the Album was "Do you like it Girl", it was Produced (as was the Album) by the 3 Original Slave members, Floyd Miller, Danny Webster & Mark Adams!

The next Album "Bad Enuff" came out in 1983, again on Cotillion, and again more changes to the Line-up! By this time Danny Webster was singing Lead Vocals and he was joined by a couple of other Lead Vocalists by the names of Wayne Foote & Eugene Jackson.

See my previous post on Slave , for my encounter with Wayne Foote at a Dazz Band Concert!

The Best Tracks on this Album were "Steppin' Out" & "Turn you Out"

This Album was Produced by Jimmy Douglass again!

The 1984 release was " New Plateau" by this time Slave seem to have lost their way a bit! again they had changed the line-up, adding 3 new Band Members including Keith Nash, Aubrey Rivers & Charles Cedell Carter, the latter going on to Steve Arringtons Hall of Fame, later!

My favorite Tracks were "E Z Lovin' U" & "Jungle Dance"

Two things that did stay the same were the Record Label & the Producer!

Also in 1984 "Slave" released " The Best Of" Album!

BANDS AND SINGERS I HAVE SEEN IN CONCERT!!!!!! part 3

A couple of things concerning the Groups I have seen in concert, probably the Worse Group I saw was The Dazz Band, they played like a Rock Band! you would have never of guessed they were a Funk/Soul Band to hear how they played!

One thing that did happen during this Concert what I always remembered, I was taken short and needed the Toilet, so my Wife stood waiting outside, when I was followed into the Toilet by this Black Chap, my Wife said she was worried about what was going to happen! was I about to get my head kicked in!

As it turned out, the Chap was Wayne Foote of Slave , he sung Lead and Backing Vocals on 2 of Slave's Album's in '83 and '84, the Bad Enuff (Wayne Foote, 3rd on the left) and New Plateau albums.

I had worn my Slave T-Shirt at the Dazz Band Concert and he had seen it and came over just to say hello, he as I remember was a nice chap and he talked for a few minutes about Slave and the Dazz Band, he also signed a book I had, and he also agreed about The Dazz Band being to Rocky!

I wonder what happened to Wayne Foote, I have looked on Web, but not much info!
