Platinum Hook - It's Time album flac

When Platinum Hook's self-titled debut album of 1978 failed to sell, the band decided to try something different on its second album, It's Time. Disco was huge in 1979 (when this LP came out), and Platinum Hook tried to cash in on its popularity by providing more party songs the second time around. There are a few examples of romantic Northern soul (including "Be Not a Long Time" and "It's for You"), but disco-funk is what dominates the album. Unfortunately, the up-tempo material tends to sound contrived and mechanical this time.
