Brilliance [Import]

Reissue of their 1982 fourth album Brilliance produced by James Anthony Carmichael (the Commodores). There were two hit singles from the album featured hit singles "Love Me Down" & "Circles.". The album reached #1 on the R&B chart. While never achieving "supergroup" status, Atlantic Starr was one of the most consistently successful "and underrated" soul bands of the 80s, with a basketful of memorable songs that still sound good today. Like many groups formed in the mid-70s, Atlantic Starr was influenced by the self-contained funk bands like Earth Wind & Fire and Kool & the Gang, and the massive initial line-up, consisting of lead singer Sharon Bryant and musicians Cliff Archer, Porter Carroll, Joseph Phillips, Damon Rentie, William Sudderth and brothers Wayne, David and Jonathan Lewis, reflected the times.
