You Are My Starship/Aquarian Dream [Bonus Tracks]

You Are My Starship/Aquarian Dream [Bonus Tracks]

by Norman ConnorsNorman Connors

Overview

One of several Norman Connors reissues from Funky Town Grooves released throughout 2013, this set combines the drummer and studio organizer's 1976 additions to the Buddah catalog: his own You Are My Starship, as well as the debut from Aquarian Dream, a group he produced with the assistance of familiar associates such as Reggie Lucas and Keith Loving. You Are My Starship features the title track, a quiet storm classic fronted by Michael Henderson. Phyllis Hyman contributes one of her career highlights on a cover of "Betcha by Golly Wow." The two vocalists also duet on another essential quiet storm number, "We Both Need Each Other." Aquarian Dream, largely a sophisticated disco set with occasional soloing, is uneven but has its moments.
