Tina Charles – The Artist

Tina charles (born Tina Hoskins; 1954) is an English singer who achieved success as a disco artist in the mid to late 1970s. Her most successful single was the UK no. 1 hit “I Love to Love (But My Baby Loves to Dance)” in 1976. Charles began her career as a backing singer and session musician, and recorded her first solo single in 1969 with a then-unknown Elton John playing piano. During the early 1970s she supplied vocals for the Top of the Pops album series of cover versions of contemporary hits. Charles’ big break came soon after in 1975, when Indian-British composer/producer Biddu, who had just enjoyed success with the disco song “Kung Fu Fighting” for Carl Douglas, produced the singles “You Set My Heart on Fire” and “I Love to Love (But My Baby Loves to Dance)” for her. The latter single spent three weeks at number one on the UK chart in March 1976, and was a major hit around the world. It won a Juno Award in 1977.

The Dancer – The Shape

This record has been modelled into a silhouette of Tina Charles dancing. Dance is an art form, often classified as a sport, consisting of sequences of body movements with aesthetic and often symbolic value, either improvised or purposefully selected. Dance can be categorised and described by its choreography, by its repertoire of movements or by its historical period or place of origin. Dance is typically performed with musical accompaniment, and sometimes with the dancer simultaneously using a musical instrument themselves.
