Changing of the Gard: Expanded Edition

Changing of the Gard: Expanded Edition

Digitally remastered and expanded edition. Stargard (Rochelle Runnels, Debra Anderson, Janice Williams) broke out in 1977. The band continued releasing records with more charting singles before disbanding in 1983. 1979s The Changing of the Gard (Warner Bros.) partially continues the loose party jam vibe of their first hit but with Robert Wright and Earth, Wind & Fires Verdine White at the production helm. The album is overall far smoother than their earlier albums. First single Wear It Out(R&B #43/Disco #4) is another excellent disco stomper from the band whilst Runnin From The Law (US #61/Dance #4) is grittier and Stargards unapologetic funk strut is unmistakable here. Elsewhere (Once In A Lifetime) Dream Come True is an utterly affecting hushed ballad while Take Me Back marries disco inclinations with smooth jazz and its all the more revelatory for it. BBR is thrilled to present this expanded and remastered edition of The Changing Of The Gard in a deluxe super jewel case with extensive liner notes that include a new interview with Verdine White and four bonus tracks.
