El Debarge Lyric of the Day

WOW re "The Other Side." Thanks, Kev!

Damn, that's for sure.

It's not often that I write that a song made my day.

I finally got this over the weekend. The rap cameos are inert, and two or three tracks in the middle sag, but this is an impressively vital comeback. When the horn section kicks in at the end of "Heaven," it really does feel like it.

Thanks for alerting us to "The Other Side," Kevin.

The Centric channel aired an El documentary a few weeks back. It's definitely worth a watch.

First part is here:

An Unsung thread is long overdue, but the DeBarge episode of that series is heartbreaking (even if you've read all about the family's history).

really diggin' "The Other Side" but I don't think I know anyone (outside of ILM of course) who would appreciate (or even tolerate) it :-/

Boy, do I love the new album. I hope he recovers.

Between this and the Stephanie Mills 20th Century comp, Hip-O Select is doing some good work this year.

YES

Time Will Reveal [long version]* previously unreleased

Whoa! Boner time!

I have a version of "A Dream" which is slightly longer than the one on my In a Special Way vinyl. Not sure where it came from and if it appeared on CD versions. But it makes me extra jazzed for this longer "Time Will Reveal."

That's a relief.

i really really like it
