The Voices were, an often, 20-member ensemble whose ages ranged from 12 to 21. They worked with producers Leroy Hutson and Curtis Mayfield on their recordings for the Just Sunshine Records label.
‘Voices of East Harlem’ was their debut for the imprint from 1973 and includes the iconic Modern Soul dancer ‘Cashing in’ and the massive Rare groove classic ‘Wanted Dead or Alive’. The stomping ‘Just Believe In Me’ is a funky soul gem, ‘Little People’, the up tempo floater ‘New Vibrations’ and beautiful ballads ‘Giving Love’ and ‘Loving you the way I do’ are also essential but the whole album is a classic. Vocalist Monica Buruss also worked with a host of other acts including Roy Ayers.
