      Strut presents a special limited edition reissue of Patrice Rushen’s landmark 1982 album, pressed on double white vinyl.

      Recorded during Elektra’s drive for ‘sophisticated dance music’ as many jazz artists created their own arrangements of disco and boogie, the sessions marked a progression for Patrice as she began exploring sonics as much as songwriting. “I was looking at different ways to experiment with the sounds on my records. Synths widened the palette available to us.”

      All tracks remastered from the original tapes by Technology Works.
