A classic example of one and they’re done. Fronted by the talents of one Lorraine Lewis, this album was released in ’88 and the lead single Waiting For The Big One did moderately ok in Europe. They were often accused of being a producers plaything but if you check the writing credits they wrote everything except the single. It’s such a strong song they’d have been crazy not to release it first, in fact the second track, In And Out Of Love is near enough a mirror image of Waiting, both benefiting from a huge hook and chorus.
My favourite track however is My Baby’s Gun, it’s more of a hard rocking fun Friday night special tune. Other highlights include Side 2 opener Fortune In Fame, a nice little up tempo groover; If, the heaviest sounding track on the album; and close out track Cradles Rockin’.
I’m not sure why there wasn’t another album as it’s not bad by any stretch.
7.5/10 from The Grooveman.
