History

Raw Silk first signed to West End Records, a popular garage label for which they recorded songs that became moderate hits. Their songs were remixed by post-disco/R&B production duo Nick Martinelli and David Todd.[citation needed]

Raw Silk consisted of two Crown Heights Affair members, Ron Dean Miller and Bert Reid; and three female vocalists; Jessica Cleaves, Tenita Jordan and Sybil Thomas. They are best known for their 1982 garage-boogie hit, "Do It to the Music". It had some success, "Do It to the Music" reached number five on the US Billboard Dance Club Songs chart, "Just in Time" (1983) peaked lower, at number 40 on the same chart.[1] "Do It to the Music" was more successful on the UK Singles Chart, reaching number 18.[2][3]
