As One

The band moves past the grit of their previous work to embrace a style centered on keyboards and clean singing parts. This transition aligns with the commercial output typical of early eighties studio standards and slick, polished recording techniques.

Musicians associated with the De-Lite label provided the backing for this pivot, keeping the dance-oriented rhythm sections prominent. The work succeeds by pairing dense horn sections with a focus on melody that satisfies a mainstream audience while keeping the technical proficiency of the players visible throughout the duration.
