Bobby Thurston - You Got What It Takes (1980) [Reissue 1998]

A pretty darn soulful album of disco tracks from Bobby Thurston -- produced with help from Willie Lester, Rodney Brown, and Al Johnson, who also sings in the backup vocal group. The album's got two killer mellow soul cuts -- the stretched out slinky groover "I Want Your Body", which has a super-dope 70s groove that would make Leroy Hutson proud, and a great remake of "Sittin In The Park", which Bobby had recorded earlier, but not as well as he does here. Other tracks include "Check Out The Groove", "You Got What It Takes", and "I Wanna Do It With You". CD features lots of bonus remix, radio, and instrumental versions of "You Got What It Takes" and "Check Out The Groove".
