The Dramatics – Drama V 1975

Settled into their own groove, the Dramatics were burning on all cylinders. Their group harmonies were as solid as ever, and they demonstrated their vocal versatility by rotating lead on most of the tracks, including the bass of Willie Ford. This album featured two singles, the first being the sanguine Top Ten R&B hit "You're Fooling You." The follow-up was "Dramatic Theme/Treat Me Like a Man," fueled by a full orchestra and a mid-tempo groove. Ford's commanding bass opens the lyric, followed by other group members. "Just Shopping, Not Buying Anything" was never a release, but it's worthy of any radio. The song is introduced with a Latin-spiced guitar augmented by a spellbinding music arrangement in which Banks and L.J. Reynolds tenderly embrace the lyric. The Dramatics keep the vocal creativity flowing throughout the album, preventing monotony.
