Norma Jean (with bonus tracks)

Out Of Stock

Add Item to Want List
CD (Item 585035) Bearsville/Edsel (UK), 1978 — Condition: New Copy

The one-and-only solo vehicle we've ever seen by Norma Jean – which is a shame, because a strong one! Norma Jean Wright was one of the singers in Chic – the super-huge pop-disco combo led by Bernie Edwards and Nile Rogers – and show broke off from Chic shortly just a year or so after their debut busted out so big. This solo album was actually issued during the height of the group's fame, and it's got a lot of elements of Chic's style – but also more of a straighter soul edge. Tracks are a bit less glossy, though, and Norma goes for more of straight up soulful sound on number of tracks and reaches it! Titles include "I Believe In You", "Saturday", "This Is The Love", "Having A Party", "Sorcerer" and "So I Get Hurt". This 2011 CD edition features 7 bonus tracks – including "Sorcerer (12" Mix)", "Having A Party (Extended Mix)", "Saturday (Single Mix)", "High Society (Extended Version)" and "Hold Me Lonely Boy".  © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc.
