Tony Terry

Tony Terry is an R&B/new jack swing singer from Washington, DC. Throughout the beginning of his career, Terry landed backup singing jobs for the R&B/pop group Sweet Sensation and hip-hop group The Boogie Boys. In 1987, he signed a record deal with Epic/CBS Records. Terry's first single, "She's Fly", was released the same year, and peaked at number 10 on Billboard's R&B Singles chart. Forever Yours, Terry's debut album for Epic, was released in 1988, and reached the Top 30 of Billboard's R&B albums chart. The follow-up to "She's Fly", "Lovey Dovey", hit number-four on the R&B charts. It was his biggest hit. The single "Forever Yours" was a modest hit, reaching the R&B Top 20.

Terry's second album, a self-titled release, included the single "With You", which was a Top 20 hit on Billboard's pop chart as well as the R&B chart. "Everlasting Love", a number-six R&B hit as was "With You", was also successful. After leaving Epic, Terry moved over to Virgin Records. His debut album for the label was 1994's Heart Of A Man. The album was a commercial failure in sales and on the charts. The following year, Terry contributed background vocals to a track on Yolanda Adams's album More Than A Melody. As the years went by, Terry began to develop his acting talents, landing roles in stage plays.

‘Music City 411- Robin Gibb Tribute

By: Andrew Vaughan

It’s truly heartbreaking to see the pain Robin Gibb’s family is going through right now. The Bee Gees singer is in a coma after suffering with liver cancer and most recently pneumonia. Of course, several big name pop acts have passed away recently- Davy Jones of The Monkees probably the most recent. Now I knew Davy to talk to but I’d never met his family. Which is why hearing about the Gibb family’s pain surrounding Robin is so difficult to handle.
