Atlantic Starr had the smooth funk thang down. One of funk-soul's stellar acts, Atlantic Starr claimed Top 20 R&B hits in the '70s, '80s and '90s, and is still heard today at the funkiest gatherings. A cool dozen of those Top 20 hits, from 1978's "Stand Up" to 1987's #1 R&B/#1 pop "Always," each digitally remastered, have now been brought together on The Best Of Atlantic Starr edition of 20th Century Masters/The Millennium Collection (A&M/UME), released July 17, 2001.Formed in upstate New York in 1976 by the brothers Lewis (guitarist-vocalist David, trombonist Jonathan and keyboardist-vocalist Wayne), Atlantic Starr soon headed west to Los Angeles. With singer Sharon Bryant, a surprisingly rare female lead vocalist for a funk band, Atlantic Starr hit the ground running after signing to A&M. It was Wayne, however, who sang lead on the group's first R&B Top 20, the showtime anthem "Stand Up" from its self-titled 1978 debut album.
