Kitty Corbin - One Step At A Time

We proudly bring you, here on You-Tube, the premiere of a totally brand new song, from our brand new album, "Soul Steppers" - due for release in late February 2009. A delectable new album of "Modern-Room" style Northern Soul. Classic retro soul, owing more homage to Gamble and Huff and the sound of Philadelphia and the mid 1970s rhythms, than to the usual Sixties style. Midtempo and Uptempo soulful sizzlers to warm the embers of your heart, and take your feet totally out of control. Just as the legendary Blackpool Mecca building gets pulled down, the "Soul Steppers" album shows that they can pull down the building but they can never take away our music. And in this recession, in times of darkness and uncertainty, as the opening track gloriously proclaims - "I know there's better times ahead for us". Onward to a brighter day. Music can lift us and make us forget what the world has to throw at us, and this album is designed to do just that. The new album has songs by Rosetta Hightower, Noel McKoy, Odette Adams, Tahira Jumah, Jay Harvey, Pearly Gates, The Flirtations, Janine Johnson, Michael Lloyd Pinq, Kitty Corbin, Judy Duff, The Concentrations, Jimmy James, and a few major surprises. Here, Kitty Corbin sings "One Step At A Time", another song bursting with hope for the future, the main theme of this album. Kitty made her debut for last year's "Northern Soul 2008" album with the fabulous "Guessing Games". Out of all the tracks on that album, that one became the real sleeper, the one you walked around all day singing, and just can't get the damn thing out of your head, come what may. Kitty is just fabulous, so willing, so lovely, so co-operative, and such a warm hearted person, and it makes me proud to have artists of this calibre on Centre City Records. She delighted us last year with a sweet, playful 60s Motown-pastiche "Guessing Games", and now even better with a Seventies Thom Bell type sound on "One Step At A Time". And yet again, Kitty was discovered by Tahira Jumah. Kitty had been a famous London DJ under the name of Kitty Kat, but once she turned her hand to singing, she excelled and makes a perfect Centre City artist. She has always been known for her bright red dreadlocks, but we decided to go for a more demure and feminine image for her. Kitty and I co-wrote this fabulous uplifting song with my long time producing partner Clive Scott. And the new album, for the first time, is being distributed by Wienerworld, who have put out all our Northern Soul DVDs, and this time we look certain to get it sold in all the remaining major record shops around the country. And remember the whole theme of this special album - "I know there's better times ahead for us".
