Title: A Taste Of Honey
Year/Genre/Sub-Genre/City: 1978 / Disco / Disco-Funk / Los Angeles
Matrix #: ST-11754
Condition: EX (LM)
Cultural Facts:
-
Personal Struggle Janice-Marie Johnson had to push against the usual dismissive treatment aimed at women bass players, while the group also had to prove they were a real band and not just a label-built disco act.
-
Studio Lore The album was produced by Fonce and Larry Mizell, whose polished crossover approach helped turn the group’s club sound into a platinum debut.
-
Media Narrative “Boogie Oogie Oogie” got so big that it nearly swallowed the group’s broader identity, which is why this LP still gets reduced to one-song history more often than it should.
