Van Mccoy The Real Mccoy

A compilation board released as part of the "Disco Fever" campaign jointly held by record companies in commemoration of the 40th anniversary of the movie "Saturday Night Fever" in Japan. It is good to dance and fever but I also want to reconfirm the height of the musicality where the melody, the beat and the chorus come together to create the groove.

Disco compilation from Universal Music featuring Tavares, The Pointer Sisters, Rufus & Chaka Khan, Quincy Jones & others spread across 3 cds.

The original group (then known as The Lovelles) was from Tampa, Florida, and formed in 1966 with a line-up of Albert Bailey, Brenda Hilliard and Zulema Cusseaux. Their first hit single in 1970 was on Maxwell Records with “So Much Love,” produced by McCoy who had been instrumental in securing their first record deal. After switching to Sussex Records, Cusseaux left for a solo career, and in 1975, Hilliard (‘Faith’) and Bailey (‘Hope’) were joined by Dianne Destry (‘Charity’) just prior to signing a new contract with RCA, reuniting with Van McCoy as their producer.

Following up the 2014 worldwide DEBUT reissue of the trio Faith Hope & Charity’s self-titled 1975 RCA debut album, Real Gone Music in association with SoulMusic Records is happy to present the follow-up set, Life Goes On, in an expanded edition featuring four bonus tracks also produced by the renowned producer/singer/songwriter Van McCoy.
