Lovin' Feelings is a 1985 studio album by American soul music vocal group The Spinners, released on Mirage Records. The band came to Mirage after a steady commercial and critical decline that lasted for almost a decade and resulted in them leaving long-time label Atlantic Records. However, the band were unable to regain any momentum, with Lovin' Feelings becoming the first Spinners album to not chart.

Reception

[edit]

Editors at AllMusic Guide scored Lovin' Feelings two out of five stars, with reviewer Ron Wynn writing, "nothing worked from start to finish on this mid-'80s number, both a commercial and artistic flop".[1]
