This 1980 set from influential vocal quartet The Hi-Lo’s includes pop hits of the era (Just The Way You Are, After the Love Is Gone) and standards arranged to highlight the precise harmonies of the four members. The album was one of a pair the ensemble recorded after a 14 year hiatus; the response from the public encouraged the quartet to work together more regularly throughout the rest of the 1980s.

“They’re nothing less than the best vocal group of all time.” – Steve Allen

“… those (vocal) charts, polished and inventive, make technical demands on the singers that the casual listener can only begin to imagine.” – The Milwaukee Journal
