Remastered edition of the 7th album originally released in 1982 by the American funk group led by Randy Muller. Includes 2 bonus tracks Can You See The Light (12'' Version) and Can You See The Light (Special Remix Version - Instrumental).
~Amazon
Some needed changes were evident on this release. Producer Randy Muller moved Brass Construction away from horn-driven disco/funk and toward the synthesizer-dominated, heavily syncopated sound that was now ruling R&B and dance music. He restored a little lost luster, as the single "Can You See the Light" got some urban and dance radio airplay, and the band was no longer missing in action.
