U.K. Soul - Funk group UK disco and soul group that came together in 1976 comprising members from two previous soul bands: Hot Wax (who went on to become Hi-Tension) and 70% Proof. They had already released a mid '70s single at the reggae label Vulcan when they participated in a TV talent show where Mickie Most saw them and picked them to sign them on his label RAK. They released five singles at RAK, the most successful of which was the No.11 "I Don't Wanna Lose You" that was included in the soundtrack of "Sunburn", for the movie starring Farrah Fawcett. They left RAK for Polydor releasing two more singles but when they were ready to release their debut album "Positives" they disbanded and the album was never released. Brothers Terence Morris (keyboards, vocals) and Ferdi Morris (bass) along with Lloyd Phillips (drums, vocals, brother of Hi-Tension's guitarist Paul Phillips) formed the production and writing trio M.P.M. (2). Phil Fearon (guitar) went on with Galaxy (4) and Jascha Tambimuttu (guitar, vocals) went on as a very successful producer and songwriter, often working with Phil Fearon, under the pseudonym Tambi Fernando. Their line-up included as well Alex Bruce (2) (percussion) and Robert Collins (6) (percussion, vocals).
