Rocket - Rocket (1982) [1994, Reissue]

Posted By: BlondStyle

Date: 24 Nov 2020 19:37:16

An early-'80s studio outfit assembled by producer Ray Rock and featuring the vocals of Crown Heights Affair member Ray "Johnny" Reid, Rocket's self-titled, seven-song set is most notable for the serene, summery strains of "Here Comes My Love," a mid-tempo club jaunt replete with a catchy, softly sung melody and a sublimely funky, zesty rhythm section (note that the remixed 12" version included here outshines the original version also included). Otherwise, the material is par for the course as '80s dance music goes, with routine numbers like "Come Together" and "Groove Thing" offering feel-good arrangements, but nothing distinguishable or long-lasting in melody or vocals. The only number that comes close to matching the caliber of "Here Comes My Love" is the festive party number "I Wanna Know," featuring a stylish, sexy co-lead performance by disco diva Carol Douglas. Unidisc's CD reissue contains several versions of "Here Comes My Love."
