Description

Title: Strikes Again: Expanded Edition
Label: BBR
Product Type: COMPACT DISCS

Digitally remastered and expanded edition of this 1978 funk/soul classic. Having spent the 1960s redefining R&B through writing/producing most of The Temptations' hits, Rose Royce would prove to be Norman Whitfield's most enduring project of the 1970s. With 1976's multi-racial quasi-musical Car Wash acting as the band's launch, the Grammy-winning soundtrack was a playful guide to the funk/disco the band would expand on through the remainder of the disco era. Signing to Whitfield's self-titled label, Rose Royce would close out the 1970s with internationally successful hits. Whilst the album's deviation from light-hearted funk/disco offers some of the band's most resonant moments to date, album closer 'That's What's Wrong With Me' creates another diversion. It's a return to jolting disco but following a run of ballads on the record's second half, there is more urgency to it; determination even. At over six minutes, the track manages to perfectly encapsulate the journey the band have taken in the preceding tracks and soar with more confidence subsequently.
