Richard Avedon's striking black and white front cover shot of an elegant and assured Melba Moore showing more then she ever had seemed to say it all. With the 1979 release of Burn, her ninth album, the Tony award winning actress and singer was revealing an altogether more outgoing and sensual dimension of her persona. Burn's production chores were handled by Euro disco titan Pete Bellotte and while Moore's previous club hit was the lush, dreamy Philly-disco fantasia of Pick Me Up I'll Dance, many of the songs here showcase the exhilarating rock/disco synthesis that Bellotte had perfected with partner Giorgio Moroder on Donna Summer's blockbuster Bad Girls album. In other words, this was the first Melba Moore album without any ballads. Includes 3 bonus tracks. Limited edition of 2,000.
