Faithful & True by Chris Jasper

" In January 1992, Chris Jasper was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame for his accomplishments over the 13 years he was with the group, with 11 gold and 4 platinum albums to his credit.

In 1984, the Isley Brothers split up and Chris, Marvin and Ernie formed Isley/Jasper/Isley. Chris, the lead vocalist on most of IJI's recordings, was responsible for the majority of the writing and production for the new group. The trio released three high-quality albums on the CBS Associated label, including "Caravan of Love", which featured the #1 out-of-the-box title hit, written and sung by Chris and subsequently covered by English recording group, the Housemartins, who made "Caravan" an international #1 pop hit. "Caravan Of Love" has also been used in the Dodge Caravan commercials. Caravan of love ' was also recorded by Marvin Sap (appears on the WoW 2000 gospel album).

In January 1988, IJI disbanded and Chris Jasper went solo, forming his own independent record label, Gold City Records. In the short time following, Chris released two-high quality albums on the Gold City/CBS label, entirely written, produced arranged and performed by Chris. His first solo project, entitled "SuperBad", featured the #1 out-of-the-box hit.
