Chance

Heavy grooves from the club years of Candi Staton – material that's quite different than the rootsier soul of her start, but work that's equally great in its own sort of way! The tunes here are mostly upbeat and clubby – with arrangements handled by Patrick Adams, Leon Pendarvis, Ron Miller, Kenny Morris, and others – all much more east coast and uptempo than the southern-styled sound of Staton's previous records. Yet Candi still sounds great throughout – and her well-trained vocals really hold strong throughout the set, following nicely on the previous strengths of the "Young Hearts" hit. Most tracks are long, and titles include "I Ain't Got Nowhere To Go", "When You Wake Up Tomorrow", "Rock", "Chance", and "Me & My Music" © Dusty Groove America
