LFO Vocal Sample - "Love Is The Message"? Any ideas who this is?

[Spazige]

Wonder if anybody has any idea where the vocal sample on LFO's "Love Is The Message" comes from? It's not the MFSB track. Can't find the track ID anywhere.

are u sure its a sample & not an actual original vocal recording?

 

the only other track close in terms of time and title is "Ani - Love is the Message", but thats deeper garage territory

 

maybe try DJHistory if its still going, they used to be top @ this kinda spotting

Listen @ 5:22  but it's probably the Vocal Dub Version or the Instrumental Dub Version (for the clean sample).

got used on that Haywire - Let Me Be Your Fantasy tune same year aswell.

Thanks! Yes I reckon that's it. Must be the Instrumental Dub / Vocal Dub. Nice one.

 

Thanks for the replies.

In fact the writing the writing credit on that version is Gamble and Huff so it all goes back to the MFSB Philadelphia International version in the end. There must be other versions with the same vocal. So in fact it does go back to MFSB after all!

 

Anyway veering way off the WATMM home territory so I'll sign off, thanks for the help.
