Reviews
Billboard review for week ending 11/11/78
With the famous Moroder at the boards, side one is entirely disco with the six minute "Giving Up, Giving In," the new single, flowing neatly into the five minute "Looking For Love." Side two is more varied as it contains one disco cut ("The Runner"), one ballad ("Woman In Love") and an upbeat pop tune titled "Magic In The Air." The vocals are of high quality, as always for this female trio, the rhythm's hot and interestingly Moroder co-wrote five of the songs in addition to his chores as producer.
Best cuts: "Falling In Love Again," "Magic In The Air," "Giving Up, Giving In," "Looking For Love."
