Ashford & Simpson left Motown in the early-1970s, and, after getting married, went on to become an independent writing/production team. They have also released albums and singles of their own, including the 1984 hit "Solid".
Most recently, Ashford & Simpson went to work as celebrity DJ's on Kiss-FM in New York (along with Isaac Hayes), released a 1996 album with Maya Angelou on their own label, and are preparing a Valerie Simpson solo disc due in 2000.
Ashford & Simpson's own site is breezy and chatty, much more like a personal home page than a corporate site, though you have to hunt for the discographic information.
Ashford and Simpson put a lot into this album produced for one of their backup singers, writing and arranging every song and singing backups.
Ashford and Simpson have written hits for a wide variety of Artists over their 30 year careers.
One of my biggest dreams is to see Ashford and Simpson, I'm envious of the lucky souls who have witnissed their live performances.I bought the original album years ago,I had to import it from the states.
It is safe to say that almost everything Ashford and Simpson put a hand to is in one way or the other fascinating (especially their first 5 albums) and this live performance goes one step further to showing you their greatness.
