The Funkmasters - It's Over (1984)
Can you see straight though that dress? A London bassed group with the lead vocals of Juliet Roberts on their one UK chart success for Master Funk Records. Roberts is not shown on this footage as she was out of the country when they appeared on UK TV. A 'big tune' as they say on the 2-Step scene at the time.
