A Little Love
Digitally remastered and expanded edition of this 1982 album by the Soul/Funk/Disco act. Aurra began as a spinoff from the R&B Funk group Slave in 1980 and featured members Curt Jones, Staleana Young, Charles Carter and Budd Hankerson. Stephen "The Fearless Leader" Washington, a talented multi-instrumentalist and member of Slave, co-wrote and plays on the entire album while tending to production duties with the assistance of Tom Lockett, helping Aurra reach their biggest success of the '80s when 'Make Up Your Mind' climbed all the way to #6 on the R&B Singles chart while simultaneously achieving an impressive #71 on the US Pop charts. The rapport between Curt Jones and Starleena Young is brilliantly showcased on A Little Love on tracks such as the love funk jam 'Patience' but it's the heart-warming 'It's You', a sweet duet about a couples first meeting and falling in love with one another which really gives us an insight into the Jones and Young dynamic. Liner notes by Discussions Magazine's Stephen SPAZ Schnee. BBR.
