Atlantic Starr is a group to reckon with.   Although they had a slew of hit songs from their early days as keyboard-hauling patrons of the dance floor, they hit pay dirt when they stopped trying to keep folks dancing and turned their attention to romancing.  Ballads became their most popular output, giving the band major hits with "Always", "Touch A Four Leaf Glover", "Am I Dreaming", "Love Me Down", "Yours Forever"and "If Your Heart Isn't In It." This new feel halted and restarted in 1987 when lead singer Sharon Bryant took off for a modestly successful solo career. 

The unfortunate disband meant no new releases, although "Secret Lovers" continues to show up in the track list of most every slow groove jam compilation released to date.
