Release Notes:
Singer/songwriter Shirley Murdock is best known for the
ethereal ballad "As We Lay," which was produced by Roger
Troutman. Murdock started out singing gospel music in her
native Toledo. Troutman hired her as a background singer for
his family's group Zapp, who had several hits on Warner
Brothers. Based on this success, Troutman began recording
tracks with Murdock and lead singer Sugarfoot of the Ohio
Players, among others, at his Dayton-based recording studio
Troutman Sound Labs.
Murdock and Troutman's first charting single was a Warner
single issued as Roger (Featuring Shirley Murdock), "Girl, Cut
It Out," which charted at number 79 R&B in early 1985. Murdock
was signed to Elektra Records with the pumping "No More,"
which made it to number 24 R&B in early 1986. Then came her
signature hit, "As We Lay," written by Zapp's Larry Troutman
and keyboardist Billy Beck (of the Ohio Players). The tender,
melancholy ballad made it to the R&B Top Ten and peaked at
number 23 pop in 1986. The album went gold, also helped along
by the follow-up hits "Go on Without You" and "Be Free."
