专辑介绍

by Alex Henderson

Wild Cherry was the epitome of a one-hit wonder. Anyone who is seriously into 1970s soul/funk is familiar with &Play That Funky Music,& but a lot of the people who know Cherry for that wildly infectious number-one hit probably wouldn't be able to name any of their other songs. That's regrettable because while &Play That Funky Music& was Cherry's only major hit, it wasn't the only worthwhile song the band recorded. Electrified Funk, Cherry's second album, wasn't a huge seller but it's a generally respectable collection of rock-influenced funk and blue-eyed soul. The LP gets off to an unimpressive start with &Baby, Don't You Know,& which is nothing more than a poor man's &Play That Funky Music.& However, when Cherry rips into &Dancin' Music Band,& &Are You Boogieing Around on Your Daddy& and the Commodores-influenced &Hot to Trot,& this album wins listeners over, reminding them that there was more to Cherry than &Play That Funky Music.& Also appealing is Cherry's remake of &Hold On,& a ballad that they had previously recorded for their self-titled debut album of 1976 (which was the only Cherry album ever reissued on CD). Unfortunately, Electrified Funk has long been out of print, and considering Cherry's one-hit-wonder status, it's hard to imagine Epic reissuing the album.
