9.9 – All Of Me For All Of You (US 12″)

BURNING THE GROUND EXCLUSIVE 1985

“All Of Me For All Of You” is the 1985 debut single by American R&B group 9.9 (American slang which means “nearly perfect”). The group consisted of members Margo Thunder, Leslie Jones (1962-2013), and Wanda Perry. The group formed in 1985 in Boston, Massachusetts. “All Of Me For All Of You” reached #5 on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart.

The group performed on Soul Train, American Bandstand, and Solid Gold. They also provided backing vocals for a single with Patti LaBelle called “Shy”. The group continued until 1987, when disputes over the material, production, and personal matters forced the group to disband.
