Description:
Gloria Weems’ Lovelight is a scarce South African soul and disco release issued by CCP Records in the early 1980s. The album blends smooth soul vocals with dancefloor-oriented disco arrangements typical of the Johannesburg studio scene of the period. Tracks like “Wanna Dance With You” and “Never Give It Up” deliver upbeat groove-driven production, while the title track “Lovelight” leans into a deeper soulful feel.

This original South African pressing on CCP Records is increasingly sought after by collectors of local disco, boogie, and modern soul, particularly due to its limited distribution compared to international releases. The album reflects the distinctive sound of South African studio musicians during the early 1980s, making it appealing to DJs and collectors focusing on rare African dance records.
