Very kool 80's EP typical of the electronic synth & drum productions that were prevalent during the post disco era. Reminds me of the group Raydio! Melodic with tight vocal Harmonies...the band is tight... my favs are "Loving You Is Good" and "When The Lights Are Out".... DC and B'More area represented here!
