 Notes  
     Syracuse, NY-born keyboardist Rodney Skipworth and singer Phil
     Turner, a Memphis native, were a startling combination that came
     together at a unique period that allowed for the fusing of the duo's
     gospel/R&B/soul influences with the emerging MIDI/keyboard
     synthesizer technology, the same synergy that lead to the creation
     of some exciting, trailblazing music epitomized by such groups as
     the System.
     Though Skipworth & Turner's only other charting single was "Can't
     Give Her Up" (on which Turner displays his impressive falsetto
     range) at number 63 R&B, they recorded some outstanding tracks that
     range from smokin' dance tracks to heart-melting ballads. The debut
     LP "Skipworth and Turner", which the duo shared production credits
     with Adams and Philly soul keyboardist/producer Ron Kersey (The
     Trammps' 'Disco Inferno'), was released by Warner Bros. in the
     summer of 1986.
     Besides the two charting singles, the album's highlights are
     Kersey's Latin-tinged "Wont Get No Better", "Let Me Down Easy", and
     the instrumental "Nepenthe". The mid-tempo groover "Make It Last,"
     co-written by Raymond Earl and Kim Miller of Instant Funk, was
     included on the duo's Harlem Nights LP, released by 4th and
     Broadway. The propulsive "Someday You'll Come Back to Me" has
     influences gleamed from their '80s contemporaries the System. The
     tender ballad "How Much Is Too Much" was written and produced by
     frequent Adams collaborator Leroy Burgess (Black Ivory, Phreek,
     Herbie Mann) and originally on Harlem Nights.
