The album featured the smash hit single, "I Love the Nightlife (Disco Round)", which, when released as a 12" single (as remixed by producer Jim Burgess), reached a peak of number 5 on the Billboard, Cash Box & Record World charts in 1978 (quickly becoming an RIAA-certified gold record for sales of over one million copies; it would now be seen as a platinum record).[3] Alicia Bridges peaked a number 52 on the Australian chart.[4]Bridges released a second single shortly thereafter; the rock-inflected "Body Heat", which had the same strong backbeat as her big hit, but also featured more prominent rhythm guitar. The song became a minor hit, but it was the success of the first single that drove the album, which climbed the charts quickly and remained there for a total of 35 weeks. Bridges would be nominated for a Grammy and performed the hit single as an opening act.Track listing[edit]All songs written by Alicia Bridges and Susan Hutcheson, except where noted."Body Heat" – 3:02"Break Away" – 3:27"High Altitudes" – 5:01"We Are One" – 4:20"City Rhythm" – 3:38"I Love the Nightlife (Disco 'Round)" – 5:37"In the Name of Love" (Alicia Bridges) – 4:07"Self Applause" – 3:22"Diamond in the Rough" – 3:28"Broken Woman" (Alicia Bridges) – 4:20Personnel[edit]Alicia Bridges - lead and backing vocalBernardine Mitchell, Keith "Doc" Samuels, Vinni O'Neal - backing vocalsSteve Buckingham, Ken Bell - guitarsJohn Fristoe - guitars, backing vocalsRandy McCormick - organ, piano, synthesizers, clavinet, melodica, string arrangementsAlan Feingold, Steve McRay - organTom Robb - bassRoy Yeager - drumsMickey Buckins - percussionJay Scott - saxophoneProduction[edit]Produced by Steve Buckingham for The Lowery GroupEngineered by Pete TurbivilleMix & re-mixed Milan Bogdan, Pete Turbiville, Rodney Mills & Tad BushMastered by Bob LudwigRick Diamond - sleeve photographyReferences[edit]^ https://www.allmusic.com/album/alicia-bridges-r31488^ Starr, Red.
