Originally issued in 1977 (with not one but two different label designs – and three issues if you include the version that included the hotel sheet!) this solid set is a blend of indie disco, ballads and soul gems. ‘Hotel Sheet’ is a popping disco funker, the standout soul cut is the uptempo modern soul ‘I’ll Fly To Your Open Arms’ while vocally Ashford sounds a little like David Ruffin on the sparkling ‘This Ain’t Just Another Dance Song’. The expansive, mid tempo ‘Shar’ has a sultry feel while the skipping northern ‘Baby I’m So Glad’ is a nice, upbeat number. Will be a new discovery for many and a worthy one to investigate.
