Imagination - In the Heat of the Night

A beautiful record. Could be the title track, "Changes" (album and Larry Levan-remixed form), "Heart 'n' Soul," and "One More Love."

I'm a big fan of "Music And Lights" but I think "Changes" will get my vote. YOU! just! don't! have! the! right!

one of the greatest albums of all time, and body talk is slightly better

"music and lights"

Music and Lights here too.

why did i only just find out about them this year when they're clearly the greatest band ever??

"Just an illusion" is tempting me bc I knew that one longest, it was on those tommy boy perfect beat comps and jermaine dupri sampled it for mariah

But my gut says "music and lights"

They are the greatest. "So good, so right" and "in and out of love" are my favs though

Voted for Changes.

This edit of Music and Lights is one of my favorite things ever:

I last saw Leee as a pirate on a starsailing pirate ship in a Davison era Dr Who.
I also know he used to wear clothing from the psychedelic shop Regal, cos I saw him in it on Pop Quiz.
But not a fan of 80s jazzfunk so I don't really like the music.

probly "Music and Lights", so blissed out

i could never get into 'gin nation' bc i kept wanting it to become the real song

Is Leee John gay? Some of the narrative choices in the songs suggest so.

i dunno man, you tell me

Sequins and pearls

vs. lots of pretty girls

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

"Nightdubbing" is one of the great dance albums.

Agreed--like this album, but love Nightdubbing.

This is a tough choice. The glides on that bass are so lovely and inviting. this record is enchanting.

I love tracks that reference music itself so- Music and Lights, but I agree with D-40, their real gold is "So Good So Right."

played this record for my record store friend- the next weekend she was spinning "Just An Illusion" at the weekend dance party. She found the single for $0.99!

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

ooh

ooh
ah

Night Dubbing is the best remix album ever, and nothing will convince me otherwise

♪♫♬ you just don't have the right ♪♫♬

man i love these guys.

FLASHBACK is my favorite of theirs that isn't on this album. so good.

oh god i forgot about "so good so right"

not on this album but just got "burnin up" on 12"

'burnin up' is great and pretty housey for 1981. b-side of flashback iirc

imagination season

this album sounds like humidity

so good, so right
