Jimmy Polo

b. c.1966, Alabama, USA, but raised in Chicago, Illinois. Polo sang in gospel choirs like a young man, before learning to be a musician in his teenagers around the neighborhood circuit. His 1st documented outing was ‘Libra Libra’ in 1985 on Chicago Collection. His discovery hit, ‘Tremble Your Body’, also surfaced on that label, however the designer later on complained bitterly that no royalties had been forthcoming. As a result Polo relocated to the united kingdom to join Champ Information, but this resulted in the split up of Polo’s initial Libra Libra group. 1989 brought another genre traditional in ‘Totally free Yourself’/‘Better Times’, released on Urban Information in the united kingdom, and performed keyboards for Spirit II Spirit. He also immersed himself within the UK’s nascent acidity/rave picture, alongside flatmate Adamski, who devoted his 1990 strike record to Polo (in addition they recorded together in the 1992 one, ‘Hardly ever Goin’ Down’). Exactly the same year he agreed upon to Perfecto Information for the soul-influenced ‘Express Yourself’, and released his first record.
