PATRICE RUSHEN - Now ( 1984 )



2 years after her big smash Forget Me Nots , Patrice finished this album in her private studio .
In a review she tells that this freedom took a lot of stress away compared to the sessions in hired studios and the pressure from the record company .

She recorded much songs on that album and it includes some fine pieces :

Feels So Real ( Won't Let Go )
This opening-track is (imo) a worthy follow-up to Forget Me Nots .
And her keyboard-work really sparkles in combination of her silky voice .

Gett Off ( You Fascinate Me )
This was her second single after Feels ...
and in this track i clearly hear the influence of the Minneapolis sound . Especially the keyboards .

And i recently discovered there's a video from this one omg



Perfect Love
An infectious mid-tempo which brings me back a certain club-era .
Her co-partner and bassplayer Freddy "Ready" Washington delivers good thumb-popping as always .

To Each His Own + Heartache Heartbreak
2 sparkling ballads .
To Each ... has a nice message too .
