  • Joey Negro to release first album in more than 20 years image
  • Joey Negro's first album in more than 20 years, titled Produced With Love, is coming out in June. The LP will see release on the UK disco head's own label, Z Records. It's only the second album from Joey Negro, real name Dave Lee, though he's overseen a huge number of compilations and remix albums. Produced With Love contains a fully orchestrated disco rework of Kraftwerk's "It's More Fun To Compute." It also features vocal contributions from disco and R&B originals like Melba Moore and Linda Clifford, as well as Diane Charlemagne, the UK singer who died in 2015. "Unfortunately between starting and finishing the project the supremely talented Diane Charlemagne, the singer/songwriter who I co-wrote many songs with over last ten years, very sadly passed away," Lee says. "We had a great working relationship, which was both fun and honest. Most of my final collaborations with Diane, 'Overnight Sensation,' 'Prove That You're Feeling Me' and the partly re-written remake of 'Must Be The Music,' are on this album." Listen to a 2014 RA Exchange with Joey Negro.
