Product Review

Digitally remastered and expanded edition of this 1982 album from the Soul/Pop duo including three bonus tracks. Street Opera was the first album to be recorded by Ashford & Simpson on Capitol after nine years with Warner Records and is considered by many fans to be their best offering from the 80s. Written and produced by the duo, the album gained a Top 50 Pop chart position reaching #45 and a Top 10 R&B spot getting all the way to #5 and served as a warm up to the massive success they later enjoyed with Solid in 1984. Featured singles include the up-tempo classic Top Ten R&B hit 'Street Corner' and the mid-tempo love ballad 'Love It Away'. Big Break. 2011.
