Pall Mall Groove

Pall Mall Groove is an album recorded by Hot Ice and first released in 1977. Hot Ice consisted of Gregory Williams, Jody Sims, Bobby DeBarge, Phillip Ingram, Tommy DeBarge, T.C. Brown, Stanley Brown and Arnett Hayes. Williams, Sims and Bobby DeBarge were formerly known as White Heat. The album appeared a year before their Motown debut as Switch. The album was commissioned by Bernd Lichters and was initially released only in Germany, Lichters' home country, through Polydor Records. The album includes a re-recording of "Funk Freak" from the previous White Heat album. It was eventually released in the US in 1979, under the group name Smash, on the MCA Records-distributed Source label. In 2007, it was released again (still renamed "Smash") on a limited edition CD through Bernd's own Burndsman Records.

gollark: I mean, I can't really provide a more useful answer than "it is a genre which encompasses a lot of music I like listening to".
gollark: I figure that, having had some time to think, I'll answer the bot pretty late, then: Erra, Motionless in White, Brothers of Metal, Fit For A King, Rising Insane, Thornhill.
gollark: I just have songs picked at random from the list of ones I quite like.
