Tamiko Jones - Cant live without your love 1979



And yet another Disco Classic. This blog is definitely not intended to stay "just" for this genre, but I have the strong drive to begin with the pieces that had the most effect on me and in my humble opinion where immensly important for so many contemporary dancefloor smashers making the (quality-)kids go crazy all over the world.
It is also a coincidence that Tamiko`s greatest hit was produced in the year 1979 this blogs causer was to see the light of day.
1945 born Barbara Tamiko Ferguson began her career as a jazz singer during the early `60s, when she originally called herself Timiko. After changing to Tamiko she worked with people like Herbie Mann and Solomon Burke.
`Cant live without your love` though, is the record she is probably best known for.
I love it for its feel, the timeless synthie-string pads and and a lot of stereo effects that are going on.
Another song of hers worth checking out is Tamiko`s Groove that is right now available on the great dilatechoonz.
