about

While 1978’s Deadeye Dick didn’t produce the same massive smash as its predecessor Devil’s Gun, that doesn’t mean it isn’t packed with some of the tightest grooves the 70s ever produced. With Dennis Coffey and Mike Theodore once again behind them in the studio, CJ & Co delivered another LP of beautifully sung disco that manages to retain the elements of sweet soul that made them such a contender in the first place. Deadeye Dick is ripe for rediscovery by all fans of dance music.
