BARBARA PENNINGTON - TWENTY FOUR HOURS A DAY - BABY BOLLOX MAGIC REMIX. Barbara Pennington was born in Chicargo U.S.A. during the 1950's. She began her musical career when Hi-NRG and soul record producer Ian Levine came to the United States in search of new talent for his burgeoning record label. In terms of vocal exuberance, her voice may be compared to that of singer Chaka Khan, also a native of Chicago. By the early 1980's, she had scored several disco hits, then several more Hi-NRG hits across mainland Europe. Her Stateside success was more variable, but not a failure. "Twenty Four Hours a Day" also became a disco hit in the U.S., peaking at #4 on the Club Play Chart, and "You Are the Music in Me" which peaked at #20 in 1977. Her single "On a Crowded Street", from the album Out of the Darkest Night, became popular on both sides of the Atlantic in 1985. Follow up singles such as "All American Boy", "Don't Stop the World", "Way Deep Down in My Soul", "Fan the Flame", and "Out of the Darkest Night" all became major European hits, while remaining relatively unknown in the U.S. Barbara Pennington retreated from the public arena in the early 1990's. Her final release to date was the 1995 compilation album, 'The Very Best of Barbara Pennington'.

@FamousMikeyG It's okay hon. Those disco years really wore us out and tore me all up. L.J. Johnson sings his version to a woman and Miss Barbara sings to a man. And why are asking me for an autograph?
