Great Debut Album

By Azone1983
Unlike other SOLAR artists that relied much on the "in-house" production of the great Leon Sylvers III, The Deele did it for themselves, with some help from a few guys from the fellow label mates, Midnight Star. This album screams 1983 with the "make you sweat" pop lock jams, "Body Talk," "I Surrender," and the title cut (of which sounds much like The Time's "Wild & Loose"). "Just My Luck" and "Crazy Bout'Cha" was completely flawless slow numbers that had a bit of a rock/funk edge to it. This is the start of what would make Babyface and LA Reid become monster producers that they will be from the late 1980's and the 1990's. Who knew this was them with the funk and the jherri curls!
