start with their best album 'Friends'


Released in the spring of 1982,'Friends' is their masterpiece.Contains the hit "A Night To Remember",which is arguably their finest moment.Other highlights include the uptempo jams "Don't Try To Change Me" (with Jody Watley on lead vocals) and "I Can Make You Feel Good".There's a superb slow jam here as well---"Help Me".Really,you can't go wrong with this album.

This is their masterpiece! Every kid in my high school and their mama had this album. Pop Along kid and somewhere there's a love were just as popular songs as the mega hits make that move and this is for the lover in you.

Some other great ones from that album were:

I Don't Want To Be The Last To Know
Friends
Playing To Win

That was a great album.

"Three For Love" is my favorite Shalamar album with jams like:

Full Of Fire
Make That Move
Some Things Never Change
Pop Along Kid
This Is For The Lover In You
Somewhere There's A Love

Damn near every song is good on the album.

And don't forget "The Second Time Around" and my alltime favorite Shalamar jam, "Right Dead In The Socket".

It's pretty good. My favorite songs are Over and Over and Dead Giveaway (of course), You're The One For Me and The Look.

I'll check out Heart Break
