Шаблон:Use list-defined references Шаблон:Infobox album Dancin' and LovinШаблон:' is a 1979 studio album from Philly soul vocal group The Spinners, released on Atlantic Records. This album comes after a long-time association with producer Thom Bell and marks a shift to disco, resulting in a commercial success after a short string of decline.
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 From Here to Eternally 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 production technique for this release in 1979.[4] For the first time, the group produced their own music, collaborating with Will Hatcher and Michael Zager.[5]
Reception
A review in Billboard upon release recommended the album to retailers and noted that the group still retained its "vocal punch" with the addition of John Edwards replacing Philippé Wynne.[6] The editors of AllMusic Guide scored this release three out of five stars, with reviewer Ron Wynn noting that the band's reinvention worked commercially and allowed them to briefly retire a worn-out formula of soul music, which they returned to with a fresh approach in the 1980s.[7] In a year-end round-up for Billboard, The Spinners were 76th in the Number One Pop Album Artists for this album and 22nd in Number One Soul Album Artists for both Dancin' and LovinШаблон:' and its follow-up Love Trippin'.[8]
