Producer/songwriter/arranger/keyboardist
Randy Muller was the leader of '70s disco/funk/pop band Brass Construction,
whose "Movin'," which was produced by Jeff Lane, became a number
one R&B single in 1976. Muller also produced hits on Salsoul Records
acts Skyy and Cameron. He arranged B.T. Express' million-selling 1975
number one R&B/number four pop hit "Express" and Shirley
Caesar's gospel classic "No Charge." Though they are most known
for the driving "Movin'," the band could get melodic and mellow
(ex. "The Message (Inspiration)"). Brass Construction, Earth,
Wind & Fire, and other '70s-era funk/soul/pop bands were the inspiration
for the acid jazz genre of the '90s (taken from www.allmusic.com) |
