La La ... LP Arista, 1987. Very Good+ ... Just Sold Out!
Catchy 80s soul from La La – an artist with a groove that's right up there with some of the bigger Columbia acts of the time, even if she never hit their heights! The production work here really helps set the scene nicely – as La La gets support from Full Force, Jon Morales, Lenny ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Instant Love ... LP Columbia, 1982. Very Good ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
Cheryl Lynn and Luther Vandross – a tremendous combination that makes for one heck of a great record!

Cheryl Lynn's punching up her sound a bit here – working with Hubert Eaves, Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis, and even some of her own productions – in a style that's got a heavier sort of 80s groove than earlier albums, but still mighty nice – and a great change from the disco of her ... read more CD
