Donna Allen Biography by Ron Wynn Perfect Timing Donna Allen launched her vocal career in the early '80s. The Floridian joined the band Hi-Octane and toured with them a year before leaving for the group Trama. She then formed Donna Allen & Company and performed in the Tampa area. Produced by Lou Pace, her 1986 debut LP, Perfect Timing, included the single "Serious," which earned Allen a number five R&B hit; the follow-up "Satisfied," which reached number 14; and a duet with Howard Hewett on "Perfect Timing." Her 1987 LP Heaven on Earth had a remake of Maze's "Joy and Pain" that did well on the international circuit.
