Rediscover the cult album of the 80s most mythical funk band reissued on CD and for the first time on Vinyl since their original release. Remastered from the original master tapes including the hits “Just an Illusion”, “Music & Lights”.

Imagination’s most substantial moments lie in this seamless sophomore effort. The formula is close to that of 1981’s Body Talk: Lee John’s angelic and serene falsetto surrounded by Ashley Ingram’s voluptuous tenor vocals and darkly textured keyboard riffs and Errol Kennedy’s steady, subtle, funky backbeat. Yet the tempo is varied a bit more with the onset of three ballads and some slightly more aggressive up-tempo tracks. Four singles were released to success in the U.K., with three crossing over to U.S. shores: the groovy, underground dance number “Changes” (R&B number 46) with a contagious chorus and nabbing percussion breakdown pattern used throughout the tune; the equally insidious “Just an Illusion” (R&B number 27); the moody title track; and “Music and Lights” (R&B number 52). – 4/5 All Music
