In the early 80s she worked as a backup singer for Bill Summers and Con Funk Shun. In 1987 she released her self-titled debut album which featured production from numerous well-knowns like LA Reid & Babyface, Andre Cymone and Charlie Wilson. The first single from the LP was written and produced by LA Reid & Babyface while they were still members of the band The Deele. The remix on this 12” was handled by Louil Silas, Jr.

WOW!!, I have been after this one for a while,
Thank You
Patrick
U R welcome
I’m so glad you featured some LaFace on FWV!
True to what Pebbles said, “there’s other fish in the sea!” LOL!
And quite the shrewd business woman too, for signing up TLC back in the 90s.
Classic R&B jam from Pebbles, and btw, there is also a Dance Remix of this running over 8 minutes.
Happy weekend, Richie!
Thank you
hi, i love all your stuff, but i can’t figure out how to get it. i click on the mp3 or flac button and it’s all code. am i being dumb?

I suspect you are using Safari as your browser? All the files I provide are archived using RAR. Safari has an issue with RAR files as it tries to open them as a link. Other Safari users have been able to install another browser, such as Firefox, and are able to download the files using Firefox with no issues. Please give that a try and let me know how it goes…
I use Safari and get that same code if I just click the link.
Instead, right click and choose “Download linked file”
I have these pebbles 12 singles, from her first album only. *I didnt care for her later realases
In the back of my mind i was hopping you might post these
Thanks
I’m reading your mind Mike! LOL but, she had some good singles on her following albums, some of them will show up here in future days…
I cant remember her second album, i might have it on cassette
