Declared 'holy grail' level soul by one particular collector on Discogs, The Topics' second album is the epitome of US soul in the late 70s, post the epic Motown explosion. With emphatic vocals, tight grooves and lavish production, the album embraces both the classic and more modern styles of funk and soul. From the widescreen dreaminess, twinkles and very soft disco ripples of "Choice Of A Million Girls" to the rich gospel intro and soaring falsettos of "Inflation" via the big slap bass mischief of "Man", just one blast on this and you'll understand why it's been sought after for so long. Essential.
