I'm feeling Atlantic Star? What

[Super D]

I just listened to a best of Atlantic Star compilation on cd that I got at a record store for $1.99! :o :o :o

Tell me disco-fans.........is this one of the most underated groups of all......or am I just feeling "nostalgic" and remembering the good ole' days? :o Tunes like......Circles, Closer, Am I dreaming......Man! gooooood stuff!


Do you agree or disagree?

Absolutely . "WHEN LOVE CALLS " is one of those tunes I never get tired of . :D
Super D , have you ever listened to a group called "Klique" ----godawful, butt ugly , album cover --but once past that ... some excellent Atlantic Starr flavour inside. (you can probably get it for LESS than two bucks!!) :D


Love those two dollars or less deals too.

(I just recently bought Stevie Wonder's 1987 "CHARACTERS" LP for ......33 cents!!! It's worth much more than that ...I'd hope. Still , it's a shame when you sense an artist is trying to make their sound more contemporary, becomes gimmicky ....sounding more like a follower , rather than a leader .... but Stevie still shines through it all on this LP.)

Stevie! :( 33cent!.........Man I'm com'in to Cali! I hear you remicks......Stevie is a musical genius.....You can't fake aesthetics.......I'm wit' ya' on that........The group Klique sounds familiar, but I'm not sure I've had the pleasure......."When Love Calls" man! Talk'ing bout' chill'in! 8)

Thanks for the thread remicks.
Peace from the D

Klique had a moderately popular song called Love's Dance. I liked it.
As for Atlantic Starr, I preferred more of their late 70s to very early 80s stuff. One of my favorite ballads was done by them. It's called Losing You.

[K-Bee]

Klique did some good stuff. I still jam to "Try It Out" from 1983.
Their 1986 LP should be avoided at all costs though...same goes for lead singer Howard Huntsberry's solo set from '88

Klique released a great LP in 1981 which I had but sold (Stupid!!) a while ago. "Love's Dance" and "How could you know" were the stand-out tracks on it that I liked. The Try It Out album which I kept, was moderately better than their later stuff.

You're right about Howard Huntsberry's solo work K-Bee

Buckaroo.....choonz? :o What dat? :o .....excuse my confound neologistic state.....but....I ain't hip to that one :( x-plain lucy! :o :o :o :o .......Then to ......choonz can be argued as modernism/...ummm maybe postmodernism ....at some levels, a strictly academic affair. :-? ..............naaa, "Silver Shadow" was not on the compilation........but I know one thing! I had my windows down driving around the "Isle"(city park) on a 80 degree day in the D "bump'in" the song "Circles"...of course the Hommies wasn't feeling me

Atlantic Starr's - When Loves Calls is definitely top shelf. I like mostly their ballads.

If Your Heart Isn't In It
Send For Me===========I played this song when it was time to slooooooooooow it down. :)


Don't forget the smooth ballad by Klique - Stop Doggin' Me Around was another great tune this group had.
