Description
RE-PRESS: CD ORIGINALLY RELEASED IN 2015
- Heatwave's debut LP originally released in 1976 on GTO Records with every tracked penned by keyboardist Rod “Thriller” Temperton
- With stand-out tracks including the worldwide Disco/ Funk smash ‘Boogie Nights’ (Pop #2/R&B #5/UK #2), the slick title track ‘Too Hot To Handle’ (UK #12), the slow jam ballad guided by Johnnie Wilder's stunning vocal ‘Always And Forever’ (R&B #2/Pop #18/UK #9).
- Plus dance floor hits ‘Ain't No Half Steppin'’ and ‘Super Soul Sister’ and the non-LP hit ‘Slip Your Disc To This’ (UK #12), and ‘Turn Out The Lamplight’ which was later covered by George Benson on his Quincy Jones-produced ‘Give Me The Night’ album.
- Beautifully remastered and repackaged complete with extensive liner notes and added bonus content!
The smoothest of ‘70s R&B outfits, Heatwave crossed many borders, laying claim to huge hits like ‘Boogie Nights’, ‘The Groove Line’, ‘Gangsters Of The Groove’ and ‘Always And Forever’, which had a huge impact on both sides of the Atlantic.
