and my singing over there was comparable to the average artist at that time. "I can tell you now that I am from the U.K.
UPDATE: Well, how exciting is it that Miss Gina Go-Go herself finally found this post and has written me, giving us details on her career?! We have had a wonderful e-mail exchange, and she has allowed me to share with you her correspondence. Another of their songs, " Good Life", also reached the UK Top 40. They had a minor hit with " Groove Of Love" which hit the Billboard R&B (#75) and Dance (#14) charts and the UK Top 30. I can find almost no info about the woman except that her real name is Gina Gomez, that she has written songs for and co-produced a few other artists, including the saucy " Downtown" by SWV and " What Comes Naturally" by Sheena Easton, and that she was a member of brief R&B girl group Ebony Vibe Everlasting after her solo attempt. But "I Can't Face The Fact" (which made it to #78 on the Billboard Hot 100) and "Kisses In The Wind" are must haves! "The Only One (Gotta Be)" was the only other single. However, the main producer is Nick Mundy, also producer of Color Me Badd, Sheena Easton and Jeremy Jordan (!), and the tracks he produces solo aren't quite as memorable. These producers/remixers include Shep Pettibone, Mantronik, Justin Strauss and Gerry E. Also, thanks to contributions by hot (at the time) producers and remixers, this album also includes quite tasty freestyle, house and R&B elements. And here we also have another unknown singer with a pleasant but unspectacular voice, but with a moniker that is at least more memorable. Here we have another album from 1989 that also incorporates the dance-funk-pop sound of the time.
