An overlooked set of 80s soul, done in the best tight style of the Portrait label at the time – classy, but with a bit of a bite as well! Titles include "New York Eyes", "Housecalls", "What About Me", "Don't You Want My Love", "Shy Boy", ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

A damn great soul album! Sure, the record was a crossover classic that got played to death back in the 80s – but give it a listen now, and you'll be stunned to hear how fresh it sounds, and how much it reminds you of all the British soul acts that sprung up in the years after it was released. ... read moreLP, Vinyl record album

(Cover has some ringwear and a promo stamp.)
