Sometimes "change" is not good!

"White's third release (1982) on his own Unlimited Gold label is more an extension of the second, "Sheet Music." The title cut touts a "change" in the Maestro's musical direction but such a path doesn't fit the trademark White sound. Restraining the use of strings and full orchestra, White goes for a funkier sound that, for this listener, just doesn't work. It wouldn't be until his end-of-the-decade releases on A & M that he would return to form that made him such a success in the seventies.



But, an "average" White release still beats anything on the pop/R & B charts today."
