Product details

Highlights are the anthem "Stay", the breathy "Best Of Your Heart", "Stranger To Love" in which Chaka shines, the jazz-inflected "Destiny" and the title track.
Personally, I love "Blue Love" but even Chaka (as I remember) thought that this song wasn't right for her vocal stylings.
However, this is a strong release with a tight band and excellent use of strings and horns.
A worthy purchase!!
Like Ask Rufus, its predecessor, Street Player ranges from the rambling to the sublime. Rufus have made an engaging album - made more so by the use of your CD player's skip button. However the touches of beauty and energy on the album make forgivable any of the band's self-indulgence.
Chaka Khan's voice is used to its spine-tingling best on Stay and Destiny, two songs worth buying the album for and Rufus' experimental, jazzy side comes out in Finale, a tune bursting with pace and energy.
Tony Maiden, aka Rufus shares the lead vocals, singing the title track, a low key but catchy and engaging rendition of this many-covered hit which certainly pushes the Bucket Heads into touch.
At its best, Street Player is full of great tunes, beautiful singing, and toe-tapping melodies. At its worst it is self-indulgent and songs such as Blue Love tend to lose their way amid the musical twiddling and vocal acrobatics.
Despite its flaws, Street Player certainly joins Ask Rufus as a jewel in the band's crown.
