The Sisters Reaching Their Peak?Doubt It

Andre S. Grindle | Brewer Maine | 04/24/2008

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is Sister Sledge's follow up to their massively successful 1979 outing We Are Family. Again Bernard & Nile are producing the their band Chic is playing backup-also featured,notably on the title song is Meco Monardo on sax. And the music is set firmly in their standing tradition of classy disco-funk grooves and punchy melodies. This album is home to some truely incredible grooves such as the title song,"You Fooled Around" and (my favorite) "Reach Your Peak". Another two great grooves are the funky "Easy Street" and the whimsical groove of "Let's Go On Vacation". On "Pretty Baby" the message of family solidarity is again re enforced and Kathie Sledge's great singing really shows up in fine style on "I'm A Good Girl".So musically this album is totally up to par. Non of the lyrics have quite the same punch as the first outings the Sister Sledge/Chic combo did and that might've played some part in the Sisters turning to Narada Michael Walden next time around,or maybe it didn't I don't know. Either way this might be musically more artistic,with it occasional improvised sax solos from Meco then We Are Family was. But no matter how you cut it this was Sister Sledge's final collaberation with the Chic family for a little bit. They would meet up with Nile Rodgers again later but this more or less concluded that period of their musical career."
