Released May ??, 1984

By the mid-eighties, Peabo and celebrated many a successful hit and secured an impressive tenure on the R&B Billboard charts. But it was 1984's Straight From The Heart that helped shatter that glass ceiling and made Bryson a celebrated star on the adult contemporary and pop charts as well. His ballad "If Ever Your In My Arms Again" was the catalyst to this success and the up tempo number "I Get Nervous" proved to be a reasonably strong follow up. Trying to follow up on this success, Bryson released Take No Prisoners a year later, and it was met with a lackluster response. Though songs like "There's Nothing Out There" and "She's Over Me" fared well on the R&B circuit, they failed to make an impression on the pop charts; an unfortunate circumstance, as many of the songs on the album bested the material on Straight From The Heart. This two-fer is a nice snapshot of an artist enjoying the second of many phases of success during his career. ~ Rob Theakston , All Music Guide
