Craig Peyton himself would go on to attract attention as a solo artist with his idiosyncratic electro cover of William DeVaughan’s Be Thankful (For What You Got) for Profile in the early ‘80s and would have a massive hit on the ‘adult contemporary’ charts with his instrumental Latitude 40 Degrees North in the mid-‘90s. In between, he forged a successful career as a purveyor of incidental music for TV, and produced documentary movies connected with his passion for flying (he has his pilot’s licence)

12" Vinyl UK. Peyton, Peyton001. Craig Peyton was a mainstay in NYC jazz and dance music beginning in the 70s. From playing on Dan Hartmans -Vertigo/Relight My Fire- to his work on boogie funk productions with Daryl Payne, he is one of the unsung heroes of the era where disco transitioned into house music. His drum machine and synth based cover of William Devaughans -Just Be Thankful- came out on Profile Records in 1983, a daring move for a white man trained on the vibes. Be thankful for what you got. Profile, pro-7021.
