Also, I was just reminded that Lil Louis, released on Epic dance, came just after Inner City's success. Does anyone know how well his products performed or his history with Epic?
What about Fantasy Records, which dance artists have they signed/released since Cybotron ?? C'mon playas...let's get on down with this discussion....... basically lil louis didn't have big commercial success with epic as they were expecting and they dropped him like a hot potato. they started off releasing french kiss in 1987 and then put out his LP "from the mind of lil louis" which was critically acclaimed, but not a big seller. then he released "journey with the lonely" and it once again didn't sell. epic was really not happy with the lack of commercial sales and then left him on his own after that. he ended up taking a hiatus from releasing tracks for a while and then came back under the name Black Magic, starting with the track "freedom" which obviously was not an epic release. as far as fantasy records, you can look up their catalog online...i was searching through some of it and it looks like they recently released a CCR album. yeeehaw. http://www.fantasyjazz.com happy hunting, lauryn.
