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!"

I love it! Effortless and breezy. Then builds towards a big crescendo but then settles back into the groove just before reaching it, ensuring you keep dancing or tapping your feet. Pure genius! It reached number 8 on the UK chart which it thoroughly deserved.
