Bought this when I was a young teen kid, was in love with it for years though everything else I listened to was Rock. Back then, this and their first album were THE albums to romance your woman with as a soundtrack.. Yeah, we all know "oh shiela".. but the slow songs on this album are guaranteed to get ya in the *mood*

Years passed, tapes lost somewhere, went back to my Rock..

Just recently bought these RFTW classics again for memories sake.. I'm tellin you, these slow songs are still amazing.

It's a must have.. this is comin from a Van Halen fan even. =P

The 80's sound was very energetic, and even Prince himself was heavily influenced by the persons like Morris Day (who was in turn very much influenced by Prince). The standard for measuring Ready For The World is whether they made good music that is entertaining and enjoyable to listen to-not whether or not Prince was a heavy influence on the group. These gentlemen-from Sterling Height, MI, made great music.

A Long Time Coming, which features the smash hit "Let Me Love You Down" is a huge fallup success to the groups firs album. All the songs are good, but especially: "Here I Am", "Baby Let Me Love", and one of my favorites "In My Room" and of course "Mary Goes Round". Buy this, and enjoy it, I'm sure you will!

I remember hearing this album in 1988 and have loved it since then. This was and always will be one of the albums that a person just stumbles across and really gets blessed with. If not in your R&B collection, add it. I think you'll appreciate the sounds.

I originally bought this album in 1985-86 and I will purchase this album again for myself and friends that missed this album. Can I give this album six stars?

I love the song love you down i listen to it almost everday i would recommend this to anyone who likes old school songs. If anyone has the lyrics to love me down would you e-mail me at carreisha@yahoo.com

I remember listning to this album over and over again when I was young. To this day I still can't get these awesome songs out of my head! A must get album for you Old School folks or anyone that enjoys great music!

Some good "Ol School" love songs and dance music. Part of the Post Disco wave of processed hair and military outfits.

Can You Ride PRINCE ANYMORE? these songs SOund Like Prince Outtakes and for the most par forgettable.Long Time Coming was my cut back in 86 but it hasn't aged well.Love You Down helped Influence Keith Sweat's style.but they were All On Prince on this Disc.this is More of a Prince Tribute Album than a Ready For The World Album?
