Arizona (band)

For the Lancashire girl band, see Arizona.

Arizona was a Eurodance project from England that consisted of remixer/producers Michael Gray and Jon Pearn (both of Full Intention) and vocalist Zeeteah Massiah (born 24 December 1960 in Barbados). Their 1993 club music release "Slide On the Rhythm" (credited to Arizona featuring Zeitia) went to #1 on Billboard 's Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart. In March 1994,[1] "I Specialize In Love" was released and reached #74 in the UK Singles Chart.[2]

NB: They are not to be confused with another funk and soul band of the same name, who recorded an eponymous album for RCA in 1977.
