Home / Funk & Disco / Straight from the Heart
A polished funk-soul peak, home to the much-sampled 'Forget Me Nots'. Smooth and beloved. A genre highlight. Released in 1982, it's a standout in Patrice Rushen's catalogue.
On vinyl: Vintage copies and modern reissues both circulate — worth comparing condition and remaster notes before you buy.
