Delegation

Delegation on vinyl: British soul with a disco shine

In short: Delegation came from Birmingham in England and sang elegant soul that fitted perfectly into the disco era of the late seventies. With producer and songwriter Ken Gold they scored hits such as “Where Is The Love (We Used To Know)” and “Oh Honey” – in the US too. The Vinyl Room currently has 5 Delegation records.

What makes Delegation special?

Harmony singing with groove: on “The Promise Of Love” (1977) gentle ballads sit next to danceable tracks. “Eau De Vie” (1979) features their club hit “Heartache No.9”, and “Deuces High” from the early eighties brings funkier rhythms.
