Detroit-born
vocalist Colonel Abrams (his actual name) has enjoyed success since the
late '80s, singing in a harsh, terse soul style while fitting his voice
into a garage and house setting. Abrams was in the group Conservative
Manor with his brother Morris in the late '60s, then sang lead vocals
for 94 East
in 1976. Their roster included Prince
on guitar. Abrams later joined Surprise
Package, a New Jersey group. He scored a mild hit in 1984 with the
ballad "Leave the Message Behind the Door" for New York's
Streetwise Records. The follow-up, "Music Is the Answer," was
an international dance hit and earned him a deal with MCA in 1985. He
had more success with the singles "Trapped," "I'm Not
Gonna Let You," and "How Soon We Forget" in the late
'80s, and also recorded a pair of LPs. Abrams's single "Bad
Timing" was produced by Cameo's
Larry
Blackmon for the independent Horrus label in 1990. After leaving
MCA, Abrams formed Colonel Records and continued touring throughout the
world. His single Love On A Cutting Edge under Nardi
Enterprises has the Abrams
flavor.
