Sun is a group that can be compared to Mass Production, Brass Construction, etc. Frankly, there is only one song of theirs that I really love. I play it so much. It is one of those songs that may have been forgotten...I did. When I heard it on satellite radio one day I was just floored. I had totally forgotten abt that groove. It's called SUN IS HERE...here is a link and you can hear a sample of the song:

One Way. Definitely a must have for any R&B fan. They had many hits. I have their CD of their greatest hits. Here is a link for them:

Firecracker by Mass Production I like. Brass Construction I liked, Movin' I got a CD from Sun. One song that really stands out is "Reaction Satisfaction" I like One Way as well. What about these groups:?

Brick
Pleasure
Change
The Blackbyrds

Oh hell yeah, Brick without a doubt is awesome. I especially go for the groove DAZZ. That is a song that makes me dance EVERYTIME I HEAR IT. It is one awesome jam.

Change. That's the group that featured Luther Vandross right? I loved the hit HOLIDAY.

Here is another group, they were the sons (I believe) of Otis Redding. They went by the name THE REDDINGS. They had a hit called REMOTE CONTROL. Man, this song drove me crazy. As a matter of fact, I think I asked for your help abt this song a year ago. I heard it on satellite radio and it was part of a r&b / disco mix, so the title of the songs were not being shown (this pissed me off) so I had two lyrics but I was unable to find the song on the net. Well, abt three months ago I heard the song again on the radio and this time, THE NAME OF THE SONG AND THE GROUP WAS SHOWN...I was ecstatic!!! I downloaded the song and now it is part of my hard to find R&B songs. I LOVE IT. Here is a link to a great website, but sad to say, the song doesn't have a song sample to click and listen to. I know there is a website that has a sample of this song, but I can't remember which site it is. I will try to find it and post it here. But here is the link for their music:
