Carroll Thompson (born 1960, Letchworth, Hertfordshire, England)[1] is an English lovers rock singer, best known for her work in the 1980s. Thompson sang in school and church choirs as a girl, but initially studied for a career in pharmacy.[1] In the mid-1970s, she began working as a backing singer at several recording studios after auditioning for Frank Farian #39;s Sugar Cane group.[1] Eventually, Thompson embarked on a solo career, with early successes in the shape of lovers rock singles "I #39;m So Sorry" (produced by the now London-based Leonard Chin) and "Simply In Love", which both topped the reggae chart in 1981, the same year seeing the release of her debut album.[1] She won two GLR Reggae Awards in 1982, for Best Female Performer and Best Song (for "Hopelessly In Love").[1] In 1983, she won further awards, again winning Best Female Performer at the GLR awards. She also recorded duets with Sugar Minott ("Make It With You") and Trevor Walters ("Love Won #39;t Let Us Wait"), as well as continuing with regular solo reggae chart hits. Thompson opted to join the Sheffield-based jazz-funk aggregation Floy Joy in 1984 where she featured on one album and scored two minor hits with the soul ballad "Until You Come Back To Me" (#91 UK pop) and "Operator" (#86 UK pop). following Floy Joy, her releases dwindled reviving in 1990 when she provided lead vocals on a version of Diana Ross #39;s "I #39;m Still Waiting", recorded with Aswad and Courtney Pine, which was a minor UK Singles Chart hit.[1 ...From:4evermusic61Views:2 0ratingsTime:03:42More inNews Politics
