George Duke - Thief In The Night
Today, 26 years ago in 1985, the album Thief In The Night by George Duke debuted on the billboard Top R&B Albums Chart. It reached #52 and was on the chart for a total of 6 weeks.

The first release under Duke's multi-million dollar contract with Elektra Records is a hit-or-miss affair. When it's good ("Remembering the Sixties", "Love Mission", "Jam"), it's excellent. When it's so-so ("We're Supposed To Have Fun", the too-much-production title track, and "La La"), it's...well you get the idea. "Ride" and "I Surrender" wouldn't sound out of place on the Footloose soundtrack, while "Why" features a guest vocalist who sounds like he's getting tortured. The beginning of a not-so-great period for Duke.
