Synopsis
Product Description The big breakout record for The System, one of the key soul crossover duos of the 80s. By the time of the record, electric instrumentation and studio technology had evolved to a point where a team like Mic Murphy and David Frank could put together a whole mainstream funk record like this on their own, and audiences too were a bit more open to accepting a world of overdubs and multi-track recording, and didn't need the 10-piece lineup of some of those late 70s groups to help them find their groove. The standout number here is the huge single You Are In My System, a cut that's wonderful in its simplicity, and somehow even better all these many years later, which it seems like less of a commercial crossover track than it did before. Also expanded with 6 bonus tracks with their biggest hits in 12-inch extended mixes. Similar CDs |
CD ReviewsOne of the best electronic R&B albums ever. Andrew D. Denny | Barbados & USA | 05/21/2009 (5 out of 5 stars) "As the lady said above ... If you really know this group, you know that this album on cd is a collector's item. The bonus tracks are a nice touch as well. It's passion, You are in my System, STAND UP AND CHEER, SWEAT, I,ve waited for this cd for almost 20 years....really. David frank is one of the Best keyboard players ,not to mention that he can program the hell out of a drum machine and sequencer...... nuff said. I wish Amazon woul put all of the David frank Mic Murphy produced artists ,like Attitude (we got the juice, Love me tonight) Jeff Lorber (on the wild side, bset part of the night) Howard Johnson............" Must HAVE CD if you're a TRUE System fan!!! Luv2Scrap | CA, USA | 05/17/2009 (5 out of 5 stars) "I'm dating myself here; this CD takes me WAYYYYY back to when I 1st met my husband! I have been waiting a VERY LONG time for this CD to come into print. If you've been listening to The System as far back as when this came out, then you GOTTA GET THIS CD!! THANK YOU AMAZON.COM!!!!"
