Strut presents the definitive edition of Patrice Rushen's seminal 1982 album, Straight From The Heart. Recorded during Elektra's quest for "sophisticated dance music" when many jazz artists were creating their own arrangements of disco and boogie, the sessions marked a progression for Patrice as she began to explore sounds as much as songwriting. "I was looking for different ways to experiment with the sounds on my records. Synths expanded the palette that was available to us."Singles from the album included "Breakout!", "Number One" and the global hit "Forget Me Nots". "Bassist Freddie Washington played the bass line during a jam at my family's house. I picked it up, we kept playing around with the groove, then I developed the lyrics and chorus. It was just a matter of recognising that moment when it came up."
