Body Heat marked a bold move by Quincy Jones into the commercial soul music industry, achieving #6 on the pop album charts. Notable jazz artists still featured on the record, such as Herbie Hancock and Hubert Laws, alongside soul singers like Billy Preston and Wah Wah Watson. This album focused on the sweet soul vocals of up-and-coming artists and funky grooves with analogue synths and wah-wah guitars. Listeners can experience Laws' solo talent on a modern version of Benny Golson's "Along Came Betty". If you can suspend your jazz tastes, you'll enjoy this album.
