Add your review here. Some passable disco but others simply don't work Review written by John Fitzgerald, June 1st, 2005 This is a brisk, breezy disco effort with varying results but oddly, it's most predictable moments are the most enjoyable ones. As one would expect, the longer numbers are the better ones as disco requires a constant beat and an appealing groove to continue throughout to work effectively and the title track and "Cherry boy" serve their purpose with pleasing saxophone breaks and gallant horn arrangements while the string arrangements are of even more superior music to the ears. "Free (medley) I am.../Free.../Keep on walkin'" is worthwhile as well as it reminds one of the better qualities of the "Stars on 45" series from the early 80's which consisted of disco Beatles medleys and the like but the other songs here are of little use lacking in hooks and strong instrumentation. "Menage a trois" attempts to capture the eroticism displayed on Donna Summer's "Love to love you baby" but doesn't really come off not without effort marks though and one can see why Crewe has a loyal cult following but it's a fair mish mash overall.
