Just for You / If I Had a Chance

The name Chuck Cissel evokes a time of feel good, uplifting love vibes from a golden pre-electronic, pre-hip hop R&B era of soul music, so perfectly defined by the classic dance hit Cisselin Hot. A collaboration with Producer Skip Scarborough, at the peak of his song writing powers with Earth Wind & Fire. Chuck Cissel comes from Tulsa, Oklahoma then moved to New York to perform on Broadway. Among Chuck's recordings was his song Don't Tell Me You're Sorry, a favourite among UK soul fans which in its early form helped secure a recording contract with Arista Records for the two albums presented here. Just For You came first in 1981 and included the singles Cisslin Hot, Dont Tell Me You're Sorry and one of Skip Scarboroughs most enduring songs Lady In My World. If I Had The Chance was released in 1982 and opened with the superb title track, a duet with Marva King and written by David Lasley. This is also the album that features Love Is Missing In Our Lives, another signature song and outstanding ballad by Chuck Cissel, all of which is released here on CD from the original master tapes.
