Patrice Rushen - Shout It Out
---------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------
AllMusic Review by Craig Lytle
Barely into her twenties and, on this, her third album, Patrice Rushen's music
spoke volumes for her talent and the growth she would endure as a music
virtuoso. This album is not smeared with that dated sound of the '70s so many
instrumental projects were contaminated with. Instead, Rushen gives her
audience a pleasurable collection of songs ranging from jazz, funk, and fusion
to R&B. While "Let There Be Funk" serves up a modest feel for the groove,
"Roll with the Punches" has a rapid rhythm that cooks with precision. As jazzy
as they may be, she has moderately paced tracks like "The Hump" and
"Stepping Stones" -- the former is soul-stirring, and the latter is an easy
listening, melodious number. "Shout It Out," the title track, releases more funk
with its delayed cadence. The Los Angeles native gives her testimonial plea on
"Sojourn" and has a calming effect on "Yolon." Most of the selections feature
vocals.
