In 1979, Betty Davis entered the studio to record her fifth and final album, while she was reeling from a series of setbacks. Three years earlier, after recording her fourth album 'Is It Love Or Desire', Davis was dropped from her label and the LP was subsequently shelved. In 1978, her beloved band Funk House went their separate ways. Looking for a fresh start, Davis relocated to Hollywood to focus on songwriting. British manager Simon Lait (Toni Basil), offered to fund her next project. With renewed vigor, Davis reunited with former Funk House guitarist Carlos Morales and brought together industry veterans like fusion drummer Alphonse Mouzon, session bassist Chuck Rainey and Herbie Hancock on keyboards. Anita and Bonnie Pointer from The Pointer Sisters and Patryce "Choc'let" Banks joined Davis on vocals, as well as Martha Reeves. The resulting album, 'Crashin' From Passion', was her most musically diverse, blending elements of reggae and calypso, jazz, dark synth-pop and even disco. Equally exploratory are Davis' vocals, as she trades in her signature sass and snarls for more nuanced stylings. Comes completely remastered and comes with booklet featuring new liner notes plus unseen photos and lyrics.
