To the Max in Bloomington, MN

Known for their up-tempo party songs,
Con Funk Shun
came strong on this album too. However, it was with the funk-driven ballad
"Love's Train,"
with a lead by
Michael Cooper's
husky, yet smooth tenor. Although the ballad was funk-driven, the romance in the song is manifested by the guitar and piano rhythms. Also noteworthy is the ballad
"Everlove,"
which features co-leads by
Cooper
and
Felton Pilate
. Although this song was never a release, it is a favorite among quiet-storm radio.
Con Funk Shun's
only uptempo hit from this album was
"Ms. Got-the-Body,"
which is reminiscent of the
Dazz Band
's
"Let It Whip."
Nonetheless, the song offers a good vocal and arrangement. Aside from the aforementioned, the remainder of the album seems more experimental; however,
maintains a high standard of musical quality. ~ Craig Lytle
