Шаблон:Use list-defined references Шаблон:Infobox album From Here to Eternally is a 1979 studio album from American Philly soul vocal group the Spinners, released on Atlantic Records. This album represents their last collaboration with producer Thom Bell and marks a decline in the critical and commercial success of the group.

Recording and release

The Spinners had a series of certified gold albums produced by Thom Bell for Atlantic Records in the 1970s.[1] By 1977, vocalist Philippé Wynne had left the group for a solo career and to work in the music business,[2] leading to a commercial decline for the group and a pair of less successful albums in 1977, followed by a greatest hits album to buoy their profile. After this album and a few songs on the soundtrack to Bell's film The Fish That Saved Pittsburgh,[3] the group changed their sound to disco and enlisted a different producer for Dancin' and Lovin' later in 1979.[4]

Critical reception

Шаблон:Music ratings "If You Wanna Do a Dance (All Night)" was a pick of the week in Billboard, noting that "this is a new direction" for the group with "perfect timing" and noting that they started experimenting with disco on this track.[5] Upon the album release, From Here to Eternally was also spotlit as an album pick, noting that the group's smooth vocals and signature sound are apparent, augmented by Bell's production and collaboration with LeRoy Bell and Casey James.[6] Robert Christgau determined that "the lyrics are banal at best and the melodies often annoying."[7]

The editors of AllMusic Guide scored this album three out of five stars, with reviewer Jason Elias opining that this album recovered some quality from their past two studio releases, noting that while it was a commercial failure, "it features a few underrated gems and some good to great production".[8]
