Ashford & Simpson were an American husband-and-wife on team and recording duo of Nickolas Ashford (May 4, 1941 – August 22, 2011) and Valerie Simpson (born August 26, 1946). Ashford was born in Fairfield, South Carolina, and Simpson in the Bronx, New York City. Afterwards, his family relocated to Ypsilanti, Michigan, where he became a member of Christ Temple Baptist Church.
Nonetheless, 1980's A Musical Affair didn't go down in history as one of Ashford & Simpson's essential albums. This vinyl LP isn't bad; most of the tracks are decent, and a few are excellent, most notably "Love Don't Make It Right," the melancholy "Get Out Your Hankerchief," and the sentimental ballad "Happy Endings. But overall, A Musical Affair isn't exceptional - likable and pleasant, but not exceptional

Includes FREE MP3 version of this album. A Musical Affair strikes me as A&S's weakest Warner record. It followed the highly successful Is It Still Good To Ya and Stay Free. The duo seemed taxed by the prolific producing of other artists like Chaka Khan, Gladys Knight, and Ullanda McCullough.
