SPOTLIGHT
Originally reviewed for week ending 5/27/78

Gibb's debut album produced two consecutive No. 1 singles and he is shooting for his third straight with the title cut here. This album is a much more polished work with a sophisticated edge to it. The diversity of the material, ranging from lyrical ballads to Bee Gee sounding upbeat numbers to Gibbs' own identifiable songs, allows Gibb the flexibility and material to flex his versatility and show just how good a singer he really is. Also more crafted are the songs itself with six self-penned, one collaboration with brother Barry, the title cut by all four Gibbs and two others written by Barry. Horns and strings dress up the arrangements, solid rhythm backing and another sterling production by the hot team of Galuten and Richardson. Best cuts: "Shadow Dancing," "Why," "One More Look At The Night," "Melody," "(Our Love) Don't Throw It All Away." Dealers: Add to the collection of hot RSO product.
