Mighty Joe [1969]
Shocking Blue was a rock band from The Hague, The Netherlands that existed from 1967 to 1974. Fronted by singer, Mariska Veres, and with guitarist/songwriter, Robbie van Leeuwen, as its creative force, the band enjoyed international chart success and are one of the most successful bands ever to come out of The Netherlands. Shocking Blue's by far biggest hit was Venus, which went to #1 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 in February 1970. 'Venus' returned to the top of the U.S. charts in 1981 as part of the Stars on 45 Medley and was also successfully covered by artists such as Greece's Olympians (1970), Bananarama (1986), Japanese singer Yoko Nagayama (1986).

The Love Committee
Born in Philadelphia, Ron Tyson was a writer, producer and recording artist prior to his joining The Temptations, working with groups such as The Trammps on the Philadelphia International Record label. In 1967, along with Carl Enlow, Andrew Collins, and Joe Freeman, Tyson formed the group The Ethics and scored a few minor local hits with “Searching” and “Tell Me”. After the record label they were signed to collapsed, the band morphed into the Love Committee, and they recorded two excellent albums, beginning in 1978 with Love Committee.
The title track of the latter album is pure disco – lush horn and string arrangements, combined with a thumping rhythm section to create one of disco’s lost tracks. Indeed, this is not terribly surprisingly considering the architects of the Philly-Disco sound of Ron Baker, Norman Harris, and Earl Young produced the album.
