Band,
R&B/Soul and Electronic
Former funk, soul & disco band of the The Isley Brothers (as producers) with help of guitarrist David Townsend (actually Ed Townsend´s son and also guitar player for The Isley Brothers ) and drummer / writer Everett Collins and long-time friend Tony Herbert (bass). They recorded only one album, but went to reach the basic structure for their next musical step by adding into project the jazz flute player, songwriter and producer David Conley with whom Townsend and Collins started writing back some new material in his native New Jersey and began performing under the name Surface, featuring lead singer Karen Copeland. After a brief hiatus from recording, Townsend and Conley met Bernard Jackson, and they reformed "Surface" with Jackson as the frontman/bass guitarist as their definitive formation.
