Description

Including Bonus Tracks
Re-Mastered from the Original Master Tapes.
“The Other Side of the Rainbow.” With the MONSTER HITS, “Love’s Comin’ At Ya,” “Mind Up Tonight” and “Underlove”. Melba Moore rode the first waves of synthesized funk (courtesy of Paul Laurence Jones III and Kashif) in the same fashion which Evelyn “Champagne” King did and with great results. There are some nice, tight and funky joints here coupled with some really pretty ballads and her vocal range to boot. The most beautiful song is “Don’t Go Away,” not to be confused with a song of the same title from her 1986 album, “A Lot of Love.” They’re two completely different songs.
What you’ve got here is a nice early-80’s platter of the
most contagious Funk typical of that era in Old School R&B.
After 2 failed albums on Epic/CBS (“Burn & “Closer”,)
and a new deal with Liberty/EMI/Capitol, Miss Melba
was bounced back into “hit” territory with this, her sophomore EMI CD, “The Other Side of the Rainbow.”
This is an official Funkytowngrooves release, authorized by EMI.
