Lady Peachena - Save Me (1986)

I remember picking this track up brand new back in the day simply because of the artist name.  LOL Little did I know it was a super-soulful, upbeat dance workout.  Needless to say, I was very pleased.  Only after I researched the artist recently did I realize that the song was a gospel tune, however. It seems obvious now...  Anyway, Lady Peachena is Peachena Eure from New York, who previously worked with P-funk group Quazar.  After that she turned to gospel music, and "Save Me" deservedly ended up breaking into the dance charts in the secular world after being remixed by George Rodriguez.  It was off of her album Sincerely Yours, and she has kept recording and performing gospel since.

B.J. Nelson - Evidence Of Love (1989)

Brenda Jay Nelson is known primarily as a session singer. She has done backing vocals for many acts including Nona Hendryx, Freddie Jackson, Melba Moore, Al Green and even a couple Isle postees - Nokko and Vanessa Paradis. Her greatest fame as a backing singer was with the group Scritti Politti, and her vocals were even featured up front in one of their songs, "Hypnotize" (one of my fave songs, BTW - and that's not her in the video, alas). Another artist she did backing vocals for was Robert Palmer, who produced this song and her entire self-titled debut album, which was a soul-pop affair, as is this song. It failed to make any sort of impression, and Ms. Nelson went back to session singing. Check out her Myspace page for her current goings-on.
