"Shirley came out with this beautiful album in 86. Every track is slamming. my faves are "Do You Get Enough Love", "We Can Work It Out", "She Knew About Me" and "Last Night, I Needed Somebody". Get it yall! Smoking!"
Shirley's solo album was just phenomenal!

"Like Jean Carne's "Closer Than Close" and Phyllis Hyman's "Living All Alone" albums (both also from 1986),this fine album serves as an excellent example of the best that 1980s Philly Soul had to offer. Shirley gives some spellbinding performances on the lush Quiet Storm ballads "She Knew About Me","Do You Get Enough Love?", "Breaking Up" and the haunting "Last Night I Needed Somebody" while the sizzling-hot dance track "Surrender" and the finger-popping, finger-snapping title track were among the grooviest dance hits of their time. "Always In The Mood" was just as good as anything Shirley recorded with her sisters (The Jones Girls)."
