This Malavasi production truly captured Luther Vandross early and as wonderful as his career took off after, in my view, Searching and The glow of Love, r 2 of the best dance compositions he was ever a part of. honorable mention: Luther's lead vocals on Bionic Boogie's "Hot Butterfly" which Chaka Khan made an R&B staple, and a early Luther lp, were he pinned the song, "Funky Music," which remains a serious underground dance classic.

Edited 3 years agoTheir best album. B side is magical. I can listen repeatedly again and again.
"The End" reminds me Automat works https://www.discogs.sitioby.com/Zig-Zag-Zig-Zag/release/868943 -
Ohhhhh wow, just discovering this for myself. Luther is firing on all cylinders on "Searching". Picking this up! -
Another great record that could benefit a re-issue. Good vinyl copies especially, are now hard to come by. -

Many Thanks to Luther Vandross {Never Too Much} & Jocelyn Shaw, A.K.A. Jocelyn Brown {Somebody Else's Guy}

Great album, but I feel "Miracles" might be a bit stronger. And don't sleep on the albums after that either.
Also--check out all the other Petrus productions: HIGH FASHION, ZINC, BB & Q, etc. -
Fantastic album, and I cannot say anything that has already been said about it, HOWEVER, Why didn't Warner Bros. swap out the edited LP version for the FULL 8:21 version from the promo 12"?

Edited 7 years agoImho only ITALO DISCO connoisseurs are able to hear this influences and the feelings which came out of italy in the early 80ies. Malavasi, Romani and Gianolio did a great job and made DISCO great again! ;) ITALO DISCO ;) -
One of the things that hurt me the most when I get older is seeing how I have been gathering all kind of musical tastes and influences, loving music more and more, but being the only one at that. I find it sad that most of the people that listen to this album are in one of two teams: the ones that love disco soul derived from Chic, and the ones that are fascinated by its proto italo leanings. Well, in my world of unicorns and rainbows I think that the best thing about Change is how both electro italo, italo disco and disco funk live together in the same tracks making this a very international affair that sounds everything but dated and never stops being as catchy as a Harry Warren melody. From "A lover's holiday" to "The End", a wonderful collection of songs. Though, yes, they win a lot when Luther Vandross is heard.
