Evelyn Thomas - Masquerade

Her previous single, "High Energy" sold seven million worldwide. Faced with the monumental task of finding a follow up, we made "Masquerade", and we lost the chance of another million seller. In retrospect it's easy to wish we'd done things differently, but we can't rewrite history. It may not have been a major pop hit, but it was certainly a Record Shack high energy classic. Record Shack spent ten thousand pounds on this video, which in those days, back in 1984, was an absolute fortune for a video.

Please tell me more details. I wrote the song and it's the first I've heard of it, but I hope and pray this is true.

Pues Evelyn si no me quivoco es la de "High Energy". La verdad la señora se me hace bastante fea pero la rola hizo época y la tengoi grabada en mi casete 65. Tiene su chiste.

What a vocal...

Agree with QANTAS, the singers used by Ian, usually american and black, had a lot more soul , power and energy to their voices, though Hazell Dean did have a couple of good tunes, but nothing to rival the Record Shack artists

Sorry I don't know if that's true, but may I say that your songs gave me so much enjoyment, and gave me the 'balls' to be gay. You are a musical genius.

hi Ian it was just being played whilst they were selling 1980's compilation cds I think a lot of your other tracks are on there too.

[scottwebb]
