🎧 Sound and style
According to the descriptions, this is a very high-quality and underrated funk-soul from the 80s:
The music balances between the groove of the 80s and the funk of Prince.
Some of the tracks have a "quiet storm" vibe, which is a smooth, evening R&B style.
The bass line and rhythm section are particularly notable.
The slow-paced "Just Let Me Luv You" and the mid-tempo "All Night" are considered the best tracks by listeners.
💎 Interesting facts
The only album: This is the only album released by the band Stroke.
CD release: In the 2000s, the album was re-released on CD by the Mirage/FTG label, which indicates its value for collectors.
This release is a treasure trove for fans of rare soul and funk music from the 1980s, which, despite its modest popularity, retains its charm and musical value.
