Expanded reissue of the 1980 disco/soul classic from the Italian Gamble and Huff. Contains four bonus tracks and new liner notes from Tim Dillinger. Featuring vocals by Luther Vandross and Jocelyn Brown.Goody Music Production introduced their sound in 1978 with the intention of conquering the U.S. market. Commenting on the unusual fusion of Italian musicians with American vocalists, Billboard noted Despite its foreign origins, the use of lots of horns and conga rhythms take this away from the cookie cutter Eurodisco mold and give it character. The mix is smoother than most, and theres a tendency towards soul throughout. Recording for what would become The Glow Of Love began in November of 1979. Its first single, A Lovers Holiday, featured vocals from Zachary Sanders (the voice of Schoolhouse Rocks Verb: Thats Whats Happening and Electricity, Electricity). It quickly rose to #1 on Billboards Disco chart, #4 on the Hot Soul Singles chart and #40 on the Hot 100. Jocelyn Brown (then Shaw) handled vocals on Its A Girls Affair and Angel In My Pocket. She previously scored top ten hits on the Disco chart via her work with Musique and Inner Life, and would reach #2 on the R&B charts with her own Somebody Elses Guy four years later. Other tracks included Searching and The Glow Of Love, with vocals from Luther Vandross, then just an in-demand session singer. Vandross star-making performance on the songs launched his groundbreaking solo career (beginning with the double-Platinum Never Too Much the following year), and The Glow Of Love would become the bedrock for Janet Jacksons 2001 smash All For You.The Glow Of Love reached #10 on the Billboard R&B Albums chart and #29 on the Top 200. Now, the Gold-certified The Glow Of Love returns, remastered and expanded with four bonus remixes, including the promo-only long version of the title track with Vandross soaring vocals. New liner notes from author Tim Dillinger, outlining the bands genesis and the recording of the album. Hear the album Record World hailed as a winner, and Englands Sunday Sun called the human face of disco. Experience The Glow Of Love.
