"Closer" is the 10th album by singer Melba Moore, released in 1980. It was also her final album on Epic Records before moving to EMI in 1981. Melba recorded "Closer", co-producing it along with Bruce Hawes, Victor Carstarphen and Beau Huggins. An obvious hit of the album was the dance track "Something On Your Mind", although it was not released as a single. The record was recorded in Sigma Sound Studio, and this implies sound quality, not to mention the vocal parts of the performers who recorded backing vocals for this album. Among them, we can name at least these few names - Luther Vandross, Ullanda McCullough, Brenda White and Tawatha Agee (Mtume). Oddly enough, the album did not hit the charts and its successes were very modest.
