Ill Be Your Friend and Ordinary People are just some of the tunes that have borne Robert Owens black velvet voice and that have gone on to become truly classic dance records. Like many other great vocalists, Robert Owens began his career singing in church gospel choirs.

In 1985 Robert met pioneering Chicago producer Larry Heard, who invited him into his studio. Together they formed Fingers Inc with Ron Wilson and released a series of excellent singles such as Mysteries Of Love or the instantly recognisable house standard Can You Feel It.

MAKIN091 – Cornell Carter “That Feelin’’” (Frankie Feliciano Remixes)

Cornell “CC” Carter has been gracing stages and entertaining thousands of fans with his signature sound around the world for many years. He is known for his phenomenal stage presence, his high-powered audience engagement, and his extraordinary and dynamic vocal skills.

Cornell’s strong love for music developed when he was a young man growing up in a San Francisco home chock full of Jazz, Blues, Funk, Soul, and Gospel, which has been the inspiration for his creativity and songwriting. He co-wrote and produced his internationally acclaimed 2016 album In The Moment.

That Feelin’ appeared on Cornell CC Carter’s second artist album “One Love” that was released last summer. It was the first single off the album and it straight away became an instant favourite with us with it’s classic Marvin Gaye feel. The track was being played on all the soul music stations and we felt that the song had even more mileage with a house music audience.

Since the label began back in 2012 we’ve wanted to get Frankie Feliciano (Reconstruction Records) to do a remix for us but it had to be the right track and as soon as Frankie heard the original he felt he could create something special and boy has he done that!

CC has had many once in a lifetime musical experiences to draw from, but two of the highest points of his career so far has been sharing the stage as an opening act for the late great Godfather of Soul, James Brown, and the legendary Ray Charles. In addition to his various headline performances, he has also opened for other household name brand artists such as The Whispers, The Temptations, Natalie Cole, and Kool and The Gang.

You can exclusively purchase this release from Traxsource.com from Friday 25th January 2019.

Song Written and Performed by Cornell CC Carter  CDC productions BMI/PRS
Producer Morgan Howell
