5.0 out of 5 stars the last 'n great outfit, March 20, 2006
By Wax Warrior (Istanbul) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Woman Needs Love (Audio CD)
as far as I know this album used to be amongst the most requested black album charts back in the very early of '81 at several disco's in my hometown.. I've been digging the melodies, arrangements, all the things and vibes since the first time I got nearly half of it, and years gone by I got the full album..and surely all the things they did are simply outstanding.. apart from chartbuster 'a woman needs love', rest of the album filled with cozy slow jams and cool uptempo jam's. especially 'all in the way you get down' sounds fresh with it's mellow string arrangements.. 5 stars for Ray Parker & Co.

5.0 out of 5 stars their best album before breaking up, September 12, 2005
By rodog63jr (bronx, N.Y.C. N.Y. USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Woman Needs Love (Audio CD)
A woman needs love mixes ballads and dance music with the Funk of the early 1980's. My favorites on this album are the title song, "It's your night", "I'm so into you" and "still in the groove". This is a classic.

5.0 out of 5 stars Turn up the Raydio!, June 1, 2005
By andy8047 (Nokomis,Florida) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: A Woman Needs Love (Audio CD)
I'm sorry to say that you will not find brand new copies of this CD in America where compact discs are sold. But you would possibly find a used CD copy in thrift stores and stores where used CD's are sold. This album was originally released on Arista Records in or around March 1981 and then the CD was not yet invented. Detroit-born Ray Parker Jr. scored previously with his Raydio hits such as JACK AND JILL,YOU CAN'T CHANGE THAT and TWO PLACES AT THE SAME TIME. Hits from this album include the title track and THAT OLD SONG. Those songs would appear on Parker's GREATEST HITS album,released in 1993. The rhythm heard on the title track inspired another one of Parker's compositions,MR. TELEPHONE MAN,made famous by Boston-based New Edition in late 1984. Parker's fellow Arista labelmates include Barry Manilow,Dionne Warwick and Air Supply. The other songs are funkily great. No R&B fan should be without this album.
