Master drummer/producer Norman Connors has been away from the recording scene for almost six years now but out of studio doesn't mean out work. The man who first brought the likes of Phyllis Hyman, Michael Henderson and Glenn Jones to public attention vai his mid-Seventies albums for Arista and Buddah is quick to point out that he's been performing pretty consistently throughout that time.

BELIEVE me, it's just a matter of time before Glenn Jones breaks through and enters the proverbial winner's circle for life! I've been saying this for two years now and felt it was timely now that RCA has just released Glenn's third LP, entitled "Take It From Me". |
You may be forgiven if you think 'Deja' has a sort of familiar ring.
The name may be new, but the duo boast a partnership spanning more than
ten years. And though the name alludes to something we've seen before,
Curt Jones and Starleanna Young are looking forward to the future, not
back to the past. Dropping the name Aurra is a positive move to
exorcise ghosts from the past, and start afresh with a whole new sound.
"SO,
WHAT'S in a name? Well, maybe that depends on what particular career
you happen to be pursuing. What, I wonder, would have happened to Tina
Turner had she pursued her professional career under her real name
Annie Mae Bullock or Edwin Starr who entered this mortal coil in
January 1942 under a Charles Hatcher monniker. Possibly the results
would have remained the same, but you never do know. Is it First Circle or Full Circle?.
