Players Association recordings brought in session musicians such as Larry Coryell, Joe Farrell, David Sanborn, James Mtume, Mike Mandel and others. Whilst writing some of their own songs, the group mainly focused on covers of soul, funk and disco tunes.
They became more disco-funk with jazz overtones, although the Association occasionally detoured into instrumental jazz-pop and quiet storm music.
Their two biggest hits were "Disco Inferno", a cover of The Trammps tune, and their own composition, "Turn The Music Up!"

No computer music, no software driven vocals. These are the secrets of long lasting quality, in my view

The great Players Association banging another classic. I remember the album had only 4 cuts and each cut was a dancefloor filler.

Goodness.......how can I ever forget this smooth joint. I had just finished my A-levels when this album was released. Danny Weiss was such a gifted producer that gave Players Association songs a distinctive feel. Slamming this in November,2022. Love it.

It's all good. I still don't understand why The Players Association didn't achieve more commercial success during their time. Their music got a lot of play in Essex clubs like Kings, TOTS and Zero6 around the end of the 1970s and early 1980s – what great days they were! So much brilliant music that still sound good 30 years on.

Players Association consisted of artists like David Sanborn,Michael Brecker and James Mtume.They weren't one hit wonders Manjit.They had 3 singles in the charts.

I think they were primarily back-up musicians and very successful ones.
