Slave - Bad Enuff
---------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------
AllMusic Review by Alex Henderson
After 1982's disappointing Visions of the Lite, it was logical to assume that
Slave was past its prime. But the Dayton funksters' next album, Bad Enuff,
turned out to be a pleasant surprise. Although it falls short of remarkable, this
solid, pleasing album was a definite improvement over Visions of the Lite. Bad
Enuff isn't in a class with The Concept, Just a Touch of Love, or Stone Jam,
but it's an enjoyable, satisfying record -- and unlike Visions of the Light, it
proved that there could be life after Steve Arrington for Slave. This Jimmy
Douglass-produced LP found the band unveiling a new lineup; original
members Mark Adams (bass), Danny Webster (lead vocals, lead guitar), and
Floyd Miller (lead vocals) were joined by several newcomers, including lead
singers Eugene Jackson and Wayne Foote, keyboardist Kenny Hairston,
saxman Albrey Rivers, and trumpeter Kenny Anderson. Despite all the
personnel changes, Slave is instantly recognizable as Slave on lively,
infectious offerings like "Bad Girl," "Rendezvous," and the single "Shake It Up."
While Visions of the Light had listeners lamenting Arrington's departure from
Slave, Bad Enuff proved that it could get along without him. Bad Enuff isn't
recommended to casual listeners, who would be better off sticking with the
Midwesterners' essential 1977-1981 work. But it isn't a bad album to have in
your collection if you're among Slave's die-hard fans.
