Album of the Day

Building on the success of their THE BIG THROWDOWN breakthrough, JUST COOLIN' was the fourth album from Cleveland R&B trio LeVert. The band's Gerald Levert & Marc Gordon produced the 1988 Atlantic collection and penned all 11 originals, which include four Top 10 R&B hits: “Pull Over,” “Gotta Get the Money,” the title track (with guest Heavy D) and “Addicted to You,” co-written with Gerald's dad, Eddie LeVert Sr. of the O'Jays. New jack swing fans will find plenty to love here; the material is well balanced between danceable, uptempo songs and ballads showcasing the group's outstanding harmonies. Gerald Levert was born on this day in 1966 and we'll give the gold-certified JUST COOLIN' another spin in his honor.
