Funked Up by Creme D'cocoa - DeepRiffs

ALBUM

As the Ambassadors, the core of Creme D'Cocoa never amounted to much; they recorded on a few labels, including Arctic and Atlantic Records but never had anything but small regional hits in the Philadelphia/New York area. The quintet dropped two members, added a female, and Creme D'Cocoa, with the help of producer Tony Camillo, sprang to life. This debut has them aggressively going after the disco market with "Do What You Feel," a big club hit on the East Coast. The funky "Baby Don't You Know" isn't bad either. They excel on two unexpected ballads, "Sweet Dream Lady" and the deep soul saga and old H.B. Barnum composition "Mr. Me, Mrs. You." I was expecting more from their rendition of "You Lost That Loving Feeling"; instead they turned the heartbreaking ballad into a novelty that you'll either love or abhor. Other kicking tracks include "Toe Jam" and "Leading Lady."
