Super Sweet - Son Of A Butch Mix on CD

After first coming into prominence in the early 1970s as a member of the legendary Philly-soul group First Choice, Wardell Piper struck out on her own in 1979 when she recorded a self-titled album on Midsong International Records with producers John H. Fitch, Jr. And Reuben Cross, who co-wrote Evelyn Champagne King's huge hit "Shame." The album included the track "Super Sweet," which went to number 20 on the R&B charts and "Captain Boogie," which went to number 33 on the R&B charts in early '79, cementing Wardell's rightful place in the R&B pantheon while simultaneously boosting her status as an icon on the exploding disco scene. Wardell's soulful voice has only grown stronger over the years and she remains a force to be reckoned with as anyone who has witnessed her recent performances with the reformed First Choice could well attest. Wardell recorded a new version of her smash hit "Super Sweet" on her 2019 EP "Thankful" that was met with wide critical acclaim. The legendary Philly soul producer Butch Ingram has recently remixed that version of "Super Sweet" which is more geared to the dancefloor and destined to become a huge club hit once again. In addition to a bonus radio version of the new single mix, an added instrumental version of the track showcases the tight backing provided by the Ingram family band.
