This was the Gang's most hit-packed album. 4 of the 7 tracks were Top 20 hits in the US. Of course, it's very much a product of it's time. Everyone was trying to replicate the multi-platinum magic of Michael Jackson's Thriller. And while the Gang falls short of those lofty heights, this effort is good fun from start to finish. A great record to throw on at your next 80's theme party, there's plenty here to pop, lock, moonwalk, and breakdance to, with the infectious "Fresh" a clear highlight. And they were even courteous enough to throw in a couple slow dance numbers so you can get up close with that fly tenderoni you been trading glances with all night. Then they end it all with a bouncy 7-minute shout-out to JC that even an atheist like me can't hate. (since it sounds like it could have been on the Beverly Hills Cop soundtrack, I just pretend it's about Axel Foley) Singles: Misled / Rollin' - #10 Pop / #3 R&B Fresh / In the Heart - #9 Pop / #1 R&B Cherish - #2 Pop / #1 R&B Emergency / You Are the One - #18 Pop / #7 R&B
