The Right Combination
The Right Combination is a 1980 duet album by Linda Clifford and Curtis Mayfield.
History
Originally released on Curtom, it was recorded in Chicago except "It's Lovin' Time (Your Baby's Home)" recorded in Philadelphia. The album was produced by Curtis Mayfield and Gil Askey except “Ain't No Love Lost” solely by Mayfield and “It's Lovin' Time (Your Baby's Home)” by Curtis Mayfield, Norman Harris and Bruce Gray. Gil Askey arranged the album except “It's Lovin' Time (Your Baby's Home)” which was arranged by Norman Harris. Linda Clifford has collaborated with Gil Askey and Curtis Mayfield on her previous four albums for Curtom and with Norman Harris on an album released just before (Here's My Love). In 1980 she would sing "Red light" for the Fame soundtrack and collaborate with Isaac Hayes for her next album. The album was reissued on CD in 1999 in Britain with 11 bonus tracks (8 by Clifford, 3 by Mayfield) and a bonus 1972 radio interview of Mayfield on an additional CD.
