1980s R&B Jam of the Day: Shalamar "A Night to Remember"

The 1982 lead single from the album "Friends" featured Howard Hewett, Jody Watley and Jeffrey Daniel at their sparkling best. The bouncy groove and spanking guitar licks laid down the work for Howard's and Jody's infectuous singing. A song that is a great one to play at weddings and family reunions and my favorite by the trio.

cool First time i have ever seen Jody,Jeffery,and Howard performing live.
I've seen Shalamar as (Howard, Micki,& Delisa) live. But never with Jody and Jeffery. But i've seen Howard as a solo act and Jody as a solo act.

My favs are "I Don't Want to Be the Last to Know" and "I Can Make You Feel Good". Shalamar at their peak, IMO.

They sound GOOD live! Jodie has a strong, sweet voice, and Howard kills it! The band was tight, too. I bet they put on a good show.
