Funky Disco, December 25, 2004
This review is from: Mcfadden & Whitehead (Audio CD)
In 1979 the famous Sound of Philadelphia of Sigma Sound Studios threw up this delicious album of funky disco. The big hit was Ain't No Stoppin' Us Now, a mid tempo dance number with lovely interplay between the male and female vocals. Mr Music is another slab of bubbly party funk, whilst Just Wanna Love You Baby is somewhat heavier. I Got The Love is a strong piece with passionate vocals and full bodied instrumentation. There are slow soulful ballads like I've Been Pushed Aside and You're My Someone To Love whilst the romantic dance number Do You Want To Dance, an extended workout with rhythm breaks and urgent vocals, concludes the album. McFadden and Whitehead's music operated in a niche somewhere between the Philly sound of MFSB and the heavier funk of artists like Rick James and Parliament or Funkadelic. It still sounds good after all these years and is a good showcase of the funkier side of the famous Philly Sound.
