I Love My Music

1

I Love My Music is the third studio album by Wild Cherry, released in 1978. It includes "Don't Stop, Get Off", a single with no lyrics outside the title itself, sung in a strident voice, backed by horns playing a funky riff. Also featured on the album is "1 2 3 Kind of Love", which, while never released as a single, did receive radio airplay. The album entered Billboard's Top 200 chart in early February 1978, then rose to its highest position at number 84 during the week of April 8.

Critical reception

The Bay State Banner wrote that Wild Cherry are "the first white bar band in this country (AWB are Scottish) to so completely opt for slick and tasty party funk instead of the usual Chicago blues... Wild Cherry plays lots of gently funky, mid-tempo soul-man songs." The Globe and Mail determined that "they cop all the good licks Sly Stone and James Brown sweated over, drain a little of the raw creativity out of them, and turn them into lovable pop."
