Sharon Redd in Cartouch Utrecht

[@FriendofDorothy]

She was loved by dancers and DJs back in the late 70s and early 80s. I saw her live once at Circus Disco and she had a stage mishap similar to her earring mishap here. She got tangled up in her mic cord and had to stop the show to get untangled but the audience just laughed about it along with her. Seemed like a fun-loving lady with a good sense of humor. I very much like "Can You Handle It", "In the Name of Love", etc. but her best track to me was "Beat the Street". She did the original version of "Love Insurance" but a remake was done under the group name Front Page and was a modest dance hit around 1980.

Oh I love this. Loved this song so much back in the day and here we get this video! Thanks so much!

[@MrChristian]

One of the artists who I deeply regret never having had the chance to see her perform, along with Sylvester, Van McCoy, Andrea True, Karen Young and a few more. Sharon was incredibly charismatic.

[@ruelnicholas8317]

yes, saw Sharon, Sylvester at The Paradise Garage ..on a Saturday 5:00a.m..in the morning...Sylvester with Two Tons of Fun/ ..Weather Girls...and then saw Two Tons alone doing Just Us

[@egebamyasi]

Thank you so much for uploading this diamond clip of this wonderful performer. I was never lucky enough to see her doing her thing and I can see how much I missed. This lady for a long time was my personal fave Diva of choice. It was so tragic of her untimely passing and just when her beautiful and unique voice was beginning to capture the world once again. In the name of love indeed. Sharon Redd - what a lady.

[@Penabby]

what a character, wish I had got to see her

After these releases, Redd returned to her successful career as a backing vocalist, most notably with the group Soirée, which also included among its members Luther Vandross and Jocelyn Brown. In early 1992, she had a UK top 20 hit with a re-recorded version of "Can You Handle It", with "Tom's Diner" remixers DNA and appeared with the duo, singing live vocals, on BBC One's Top of the Pops on January 30. Following the success of this new version of "Can You Handle It", she recorded a single entitled "All the Way to Love", with L.A. Mix's Les Adams. This was to be her last solo recording and remains unreleased. In the midst of mounting a comeback in the early 1990s, Redd died of pneumonia on May 1, 1992. Dance Music Reportmagazine reported that her death was AIDS-related. The virus had weakened her immune system, which had become ineffective following the singer stepping on broken glass on stage. In 1993, Redd's vocals featured on the duet track "Under Pressure", as found on her half-sister Penny Ford's self-titled album.

Oh 💩

[@geli-anton]

Much better than Tina Turner. Thanks to her, this tune is true legend Disco Funk is the ultimate pop music It was so much more produced than the plain ordinary pop rock. One evidence: the elaborated instrumental break in Disco​@FriendofDorothy

[@so_cal8057]

You can celebrate Sharon without tearing Tina down. Both were excellent performers

[@geli-anton]

@@so_cal8057 but only Sharon can handle it

[@so_cal8057]

@@geli-anton two different genres of music tho lol

[@FriendofDorothy]

What the heck do those two artists have in common? Sharon Redd was known for her dance music hits; Tina Turner was known for soul (with Ike) and then pop (solo). It would make more sense if you were comparing Sharon Redd to Martha Wash or Loleatta Holloway or Jocelyn Brown. What you're doing makes about as much sense as comparing Joni Mitchell to Barbra Streisand! When making comparisons at least compare artists within the same music genre if you must make comparisons at all.

[@jamesvaccaro1978]

@@so_cal8057 unfortunately that person is obviously doing a comparison only based around their race. Because at the end of the day, they are two completely different artists that I’m sure are both in heaven. Having a Kiki as we speak!
