Best song on the album.
It's a shame that I can't really get into this LP for some reason. It has a couple highlights including this track, but it just doesn't grab ahold of me the same way "On The One" or "Joystick" do.
You're so glam, every time I see you I wanna slam! | |

Yeah this album was a bit of a letdown following Joystick but Jukebox still had it's moments with Let It All Blow, Keep You Coming Back For More, Heartbeat, Undercover Lover, Dream Girl. Don't laugh at my funk

I was just listening to this album for the first time in years yesterday and Dream Girl really caught my ear. Let It All Blow sounds just as good as it did 25 years ago. It really pumps on a good sound system. Don't laugh at my funk

co-sign. and one of the instances where the 12" was worth the extra scratch. The longer mix of "Let It All Blow" sounds great, IMO (and yessssss....always LOUD ) Funk Is It's Own Reward | |

I don't remember this one because it never got any airplay in my area and I only bought the "Let It All Blow" 45 since I never heard anything else off the album played on the radio to tempt me to buy the album. It sounds good though. Andy is a four letter word. | |

What about Heartbeat? Heartbeat got a lot of play in my area but i'm not sure how well it charted. Heartbeat was the followup single and i think they had an extended 12 inch version. I like the hypnotic percussion throughout. Don't laugh at my funk

Dazz died HARD post "Let It Whip" (as far as any major market airplay). Shame. They hit a TON of great jamz post '83. Funk Is It's Own Reward | |

Yes they did fade out chart wise after Let It Whip which was such a huge crossover hit for them as well. Still r&b radio should have supported them more than they did. Even their final album for Motown Hot Spot generated little interest. The title cut got very little airplay in my area but what i thought was funny was one of the local news channels would play the song with the guitar riff in between commercials from time to time. Don't laugh at my funk
