Donna Allen - Can We Talk [Remixes] 1988

A quick post before my February roundup; Donna Allen's C&C remixes of Can We Talk, the second single from her Heaven On Earth album from 1988. This was the follow up to her Top 10 hit Joy and Pain, and it bombed! I think the mixes are pretty good, nothing special, but a nice addition to her catalogue of pretty decent R&B/Pop, it's a shame she never had any longevity as pop act as she has a great voice and a couple of memorable hits with Serious (#8) and Joy and Pain (#10).

1. Can We Talk (Radio Remix) (3:30)
2. Can We Talk (Club Mix) (6:07)
3. Can We Talk (Dub Mix) (4:32)
4. Come For Me (4:26)

Donna Allen - Sweet Somebody

Originally recorded by Shannon of Let The Music Play fame and a minor UK Top 30 hit. This version by Donna Allen is a slightly more soulful and funky take on the track. Donna is perhaps best known for her 1986 hit Serious which was later sampled/covered by Strike on their 90's classic U Sure Do. Sweet Somebody was nowhere near as popular and pretty much bombed on both sides of the Atlantic.
