I lurked for a bit before deciding to chime in on the subject. About ten
years ago I got heavily into the LE sound via the remix of "Slow Down" that
was on the local radio station. I picked up the album Zagora, and it is a
masterpiece, imho. The arrangements are amazing, and their version of
'Sweetest Pain' by Dexter Wansel is gorgeous. Highly recommended.
Also, A Little Spice, The Real Chuckeeboo and Look How Long have some
great stuff. I also got hold of an import CD titled So Where Are You?, which
has some outtakes from sessions in 1995, with some cuts from the Zagora CD. I
can only recommend this one to LE die-hards, as there are some cheesy 80's
tracks with all the DMX/DX-7 stuff that sounds so dated now. There are a
couple of good tracks, but not enough to justify full-price.
It's too bad that Macca, Jane and Steve did not individually or
collectively do more work, because they probably would sound great right
about now. I guess the music industry kills off too many talented artists
because of sales figures. Too bad they don't have a clue how to actually
promote the good stuff. O well.
