Irons in the Fire

€ 19,50

?Behind the Groove? was still on the charts when Teena Marie struck again with ?I Need Your Lovin?,? a seemingly weightless but potent dancefloor number that eventually eclipsed the success of its predecessor. Like everything else on Irons in the Fire, released six months following Lady T, the song -- the most joyous R&B single of 1980, tied with Patrice Rushen's ?Haven?t You Heard? -- was written, arranged, and produced by Teena. She proved that she could not only handle everything but excel creatively and sell some records. This was T?s first Top Ten R&B album, and it crossed into the Top 40 of the Billboard 200. ?I Need Your Lovin?? was a major reason for the success, playing the same role as Wild and Peaceful's ?I?m a Sucker for Your Love? and Lady T's ?Behind the Groove? by leading off the album with tremendous positive energy. The song was so big that it overshadowed the set?s other upbeat songs. ?First Class Love? was dusted off from the mid-?70s demo pile and given a forceful rock edge, and it acted like a warning flare for one of her biggest crossover hits, 1984?s ?Lover Girl.? ?Chains,? spotlighting fellow Motown act Ozone (a band Teena produced the following year) with call-and-response vocals and instrumental flash to spare, as well as the gorgeously Latin-flavored ?You Make Love Like Springtime,? should not be discounted, either. Once again, transportive ballads -- highlighted by ?Young Love? -- are a key attraction, boasting a few more subtle sonic twists than Teena?s previous slow material. Her athletic voice is so alluring that one can see past perfumed-meadow-of-the-mind meanderings like ?Here I am, your Piscean holocaust/Born in Venice Harlem, it?s so sweet, the sour sauce.? [Hip-O Select's 2011 reissue adds half an hour of material from two July 1981 gigs that took place in Long Beach, California -- the same source for the live material contained on the second disc of Rick James' deluxe Street Songs. Between the deluxe Street Songs and the bonus tracks on the 2002 reissue of It Must Be Magic, four of the five selections have already been in circulation; only ''I Need Your Lovin,''' flecked with that disco pew-pew-pew effect, is being heard for the first time here.] ~ Andy Kellman
