patrice rushen - straight from the heart (2lp/ stereo/ 180g)

A pinnacle of early ‘80s R&B, Straight From the Heart blends Patrice Rushen’s jazz chops with irresistible grooves and soul-soaked vocals. Best known for the hit “Forget Me Nots,” the album glows with smooth funk, tight musicianship, and lush production.

Songs like “Remind Me” and “Number One” are standout examples of sophisticated, radio-ready funk that influenced generations of hip-hop and neo-soul artists. It’s a perfect blend of brains and feel—danceable, cool, and endlessly stylish.
