Toney Lee, the classic instrumentals
I spent ages looking for a picture of Toney Lee, I found the cover image of his latest gospel album from a couple of years back, I found a bunch of pictures of a chinese physics professor, and so on, so I ended up opting for a picture of Man City setting up to score on Norwich FC in 1977. None of these instrumental versions were recorded in 1977, Toney Lee has no doubt never even visited the fine city of Norwich, but I was just looking at the picture earlier so decided to use it. I'm in the market for a 1977/78 season Norwich shirt, size medium, do please hit me up.

did you search for pics while properly spelling his name?

both of these dubs/instrumentals are huge dancefloor jams for me, been killing it for years now. "love so deep" especially....

ah, there you go, of course, I had simply spelled his name wrong. I won't use that as justification for pulling the Norwich City pic down though.
I agree, these intrumentals are not really rarities, they are just essentials.

seems as though the "love so deep" one is getting pretty hard to find, i grabbed 3 copies of it for myself back when they were plentiful in pittsburgh. now a bunch of people i know are looking for it with no luck. "reach up" got booted a couple years back, i think that is why demand for that one is a little less.

The instrumentals are the best.
I used to do pause button edits of those tracks back when i was young.
The basslines are what do it for me
