  The Leroy Burgess Discography...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
It would probably be true to say that Leroy and the Aleems enjoyed their higest profile at around this time.
Comments: Throughout the entire Seventies and Eighties Leroy Burgess was hugely prolific and yet unbelievably this was the only record that came out his own name in all those 20 years (there were more in the 90's).
Although Burgess doesn't feature on the new material ("You Are My Lover", "Words", "All The Right Moves", "Hold On Tight") having left the band in 1978, he obviously appears on the older stuff ("You and I", "Don't Turn Around", "Find The One Who Loves You", "Mainline").

Born and raised in Harlem, Burgess sang in church choirs and was tutored by Herbie Jones, a Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn associate; apart from that, his musical knowledge was picked up informally through his mother (a onetime opera singer) and the infrequent family reunion meet-ups with his uncle, legendary Philly soul arranger/producer Thom Bell.
Burgess, Stuart Bascombe, and Russell Patterson were still in their teens at the turn of the '70s, but they were extremely anxious to be heard and recorded.
Burgess' output was reduced to a slow pace by the end of the '80s, though he did remain somewhat active throughout the early 2000s, collaborating occasionally with artists like Blaze, Glenn Underground, and Cassius.

A note from LeRoy Burgess I have been asked, throughout my career, what I hoped to accomplish with my music.
The second volume in our Leroy Burgess Anthology series concentrates more on his songwriting and production abilities rather than his vocals which were contained within volume one -'The Voice'.
It was indeed a pleasure to work with Leroy to create these two volumes of the anthology: a series that we hope has introduced to a wider audience surely an otherwise underrated artist, songwriter and producer.
