This review is from: Too Hot to Handle (Audio CD)

Rod Temperton, do you know the name? If not, try this: Michael Jackson and Quincy Jones, that's right, the man that wrote most of the hits for M.J. on Off the Wall, Thriller, Bad, etc., was none other than Heatwave's Rod Temperton. He wrote all the songs on this cd too. GET IT FOOL!

4.0 out of 5 stars Top Notch, October 17, 2002

D. A. OWENS "grooove" (ROCK HILL, SC United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Too Hot to Handle (Audio CD)

Old School at its best! I was 8th grade when this dropped, and it is still kickin. Heavily sampled, used and abused. These days you can really tell a records influence by the number of samples that were stolen. I like 'em either way. This is a very good record, start to finish. R&B big bands need to come back!

5.0 out of 5 stars Too Hot to Handle, July 10, 2002

"jazzmanhayes" (Honolulu, Hawaii United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Too Hot to Handle (Audio CD)

As a boy, coming of age, in the late 70s, Heatwave provided a lot of stability in my life. This underrated band had a great rythmn and funky riffs that anyone could groove to. I recommend this disc for anyone that wants to go back even for just a second.
