Super dope South African disco LP from 81', not a bad track on this really.. Standout
tunes are the mesmerising ''Mother Earth'' and the groovy ''Ukhamba'' (even better
when pitched up a bit).. GREAT basslines and solid drumplaying all over.

Sparkle was a female vocal trio from Connecticut, assembled by the producer Harold
Sargent, erstwhile drummer of the sterling funk band Wood, Brass & Steel, and creator
of manifold drum breaks that would go on to be sampled for decades. Originally released
in 1979, the album and the group are fittingly titled as the music is a scintillating,
radiant collection of shimmering disco and dazzling funk, performed by Too Much Too
Soon -- the multiracial R&B band that featured Evan Rogers and Carl Sturken, the
writing/production team that would discover Rihanna and power her career to global
dominance fifteen years later. Also on hand is musical prodigy Rahni Harris, whose
Sargent-assisted club classic 'Six Million Steps' is also included on the album.
