Things were happening fast in 1979. Once Sugar Hill Records came out with their Sugarhill Gang, everybody scrambled to put out a record. Among the first was Gabriel Jackson b/k/a Spoonie Gee, who recorded a solo platter while he was still considered a member of the Treacherous Three. His "Spoonin Rap" came out on Sound of New York, U.S.A., sharing its rhythm track with a spacey instrumental that appeared on the same label, Cloud One's "Patty Duke." Sound of New York, U.S.A. (not to be confused with Sound of New York, responsible for Indeep's club classic "Last Night a DJ Saved My Life") was one of various small labels operated by veteran record producer Peter Brown, the most prominent being P&P Records, a joint effort with fellow Harlem producer Patrick Adams.
