Description
A keyboardist/producer/vocalist, Dexter Wansel was a major force in the explosion of the Philadelphia sound during the '70s and '80s. he formed his first groups with Stanley Clarke during high school. Wansel signed a solo deal with Philadelphia International Records in 1976 and the company issued his debut LP "Life on Mars". The title cut was a favorite on the fusion circuit. Wansel recorded other LPs in the same style during the late '70s. He is recognized for his impact as a writer, producer, conductor and arranger. He worked closely with M.F.S.B and their 1980 release "Mysteries of the World". As a writer and/ or producer, Wansel has worked with recording legends, such as Patti Labelle, Stevie Wonder, The Jacksons, Teddy Pendergrass, Billy Paul. Lou Rawls, The Stylistics, Jean Carne, Jerry Butler, and the late Phyllis Hyman and Grover Washington Jr. His music has influenced and been used by more recent artists like Jay-Z, The Lox, Jamiroquai, Incognito, Junior, Loose Ends and many others.
The concept of the CD is based on mid-tempo grooves and melodic music with some vocals.
