Little interesting information about Brass Construction except the fact that it is an American group formed in New York in 1968 and originally composed of Randy Muller, Larry Payton, Wade Williamson, Joseph Wong, Wayne Parris , Morris Price, Mickey Grudge and Jesse Ward.
Group that will remain mainly in the musical history of the end of the 20th century for the big-caliber single "Movin", single released in 1976.
For that reason alone, we had to devote this article to them.
To discover or rediscover.

Clips :
1970 ... a very first title to break in and start a little while talking about yourself. For the break-in, it's OK, for the rest, it's something else ...
1976 ... six years will pass between this title and the previous title but it was frankly worth the wait, that's clear. The group will deliver here the biggest success of all its discography, see its notoriety literally explode internationally and obtain its direct ticket for posterity. MAS-TER-FULLY played as they say !
1976 ... difficult for this sequel to compete with the previous enormous steamroller as the bar has been raised. With the consequence of a loosening, to say the least, in the Charts ...
1976 ... they will still manage to save the furniture with this last title of the year. Anyway, the group's career is well and truly launched and that is the main thing !
1977 ... unfortunately, the group will relapse directly behind and this despite this title with finesse and quality more than certain. Like what, nothing is ever acquired ...
1977 ... the group has nevertheless not completely disappeared from the radars because he continues to maintain a semblance of success in the USA. But the success they have now had really nothing to do with what they experienced on "Movin '" ...
1978 ... it is clear that the group will not remain as the most gifted of its generation but what he continues to offer largely holds up. It's already that...
1978 ... although the level of success has dropped sharply, they continue to exist at a minimum in R&B Charts. Which at least has the merit of keeping them in the race for the moment ...
1978 ... a BIG year 1978 with a plethora of titles and a certain overall quality. Nothing exceptional but a good job simply ...
1979 ... the years go by but are not necessarily alike. Plethora of titles in 1978, only one title for 1979. From one extreme to another ...
1980 ... now remains to be seen what the 1980s have in store for them. Return to favor or slow and above all irreversible discarding ? It is the future that will tell us ...
1980 ... here they are in Intimist mode and the least we can do is that they are far from being ridiculous in this demanding field. And yet, this title will pass 'through' as they say. Go figure ...
1982 ... after a year 1981 empty, here they are back in this year 1982 in a form that we will describe as certain. Enough to make them regain some ground on the competition ...
1983 ... a great form which is confirmed with this title. A title that allows them to reconnect with success on both sides of the Atlantic and above all to prove that we will have to count on them again in the years to come ...
1984 ... the adventure continues at all costs even if this year 1984 sees them set back somewhat. Nothing to worry about for the moment but be careful not to play it too easily ...
1984 ... message received at first sight since this title will know a fate much more flattering than its predecessor. Of course, we are not talking about a mega hit but about big caliber successes all the same ...
1984 ... unbelievable as it may seem, this title will not even be classified. While it is surely one of their most successful. Totally incomprehensible ...
1985 ... this one on the other hand will be well and truly classified and offers them a new star to attach to an already well-stocked prize list. That's the good news. The bad news is that will be the last time they'll land one of this caliber ...
1985 ... the group slowly but surely approaches the exit. A career which will have lasted a little more than 15 years and which will have allowed them to produce several titles of which they can be proud. Isn't that the main thing ...?
1985 ... too bad that the adventure stops at this stage because the group had found a level of inspiration which could have allowed them to continue the adventure without problem. Fate will have decided otherwise ...
