Do you ever hear a song
that takes you back and you know exactly where you were? As I was
listening to Change’s song "The Glow of Love" it reminded
me of good times, simpler times when I was single and mingling.
Change was an
Italian-American group that was formed in Bologna, Italy in 1979 by
Jacques Fred Petrus businessman and executive producer and Mauro
Malavasi. Many considered Change to be a clone of Chic. Granted,
there were some similarities both featured dynamic bass lines in
their music. They were fronted by mostly studio singers but there was
one unknown singer at the time by the name of Luther Vandross (April
20, 1951 – July 1, 2005). One of my all-time favorite singers. Oh,
could that man sing? Change had their time in the spotlight during
the late 70's and early 80's. However, Change did score on the charts
with some significant dance tunes. "A Lover's Holiday," the
group's debut single, was a very danceable song that fit in with the
current pop hits. "Searching" and "The Glow of Love"
benefit enormously from the vocals of Luther Vandross. Some more of
my favorite tunes are, "Paradise", "Change of Heart"
and "Turn On Your Radio".
People don’t remember Change until they hear their songs. Streetwise Radio is playing their songs, so checkout this blast from the past.
