Notes
2014 remastered reissue of Come to My World (1st time on CD)/On the Line, 2 Album on 1 CD Edition. While never breaking out as a crossover artist, keyboardist and vocalist Michael Wycoff developed a following as a result of three solid albums he released in the early 80's and a hit that was later sampled as part of a major hit. Wycoff's RCA 1981 debut album, Come to My World, spun off two hits, "Feel My Love" and "One Alone." the album sees Michael working with producer Webster Lewis and a group of top notch musicians, including drummer James Gadson and vocalists Gary Taylor, Tawatha Agee & Fonzi Thorton. He released his third and final RCA album in 1983, on the Line, & it was his biggest. Including the dance hit "Tell Me Love" plus two excellent other cuts, the mid-tempo "There's No Easy Way" and the tender ballad "So Close." Both album's became a landmark release for Wycoff and lovers of sophisticated early '80's R&B (Luther Vandross, Leon Ware, Patrice Rushen, Lewis' own releases, etc.) will find plenty to like beyond the singles.
