Description

All aboard the D-Train! Joining us on this trip are vocalist James "D-Train" Williams and producer/songwriter Hubert Eaves III, who will look back on their groundbreaking 1981 debut single "You're The One For Me."When Williams and Eaves III met, it was a match made in club heaven: a singer rooted in Gospel, gifted with the ability of conveying his spirit through his vocal performance, and a prolific musician that fused funk with jazz and electronic music. Together, they created an influential sound that has been covered or sampled by the greatest musicians of all time, and it all began with a song that took just 45 minutes to write.More On D-TrainFacebook | InstagramSpotify Artist PageMore On Hubert Eaves IIIArtist WebsiteShow TracklistingMusic (D-Train)Can't Turn Around Now (Bishop R.
