Love Come Down

Recorded for Evelyn King’s Get Loose sessions in New York at Kashif’s Celestial Sounds and The Power Station, with Kashif handling the song’s writing and instrumental arrangement alongside Morrie Brown and Paul Lawrence Jones III in the production team. Session credits also list Kashif, Steve Goldman, Leslie Ming, Bashiri Johnson, Ira Siegel, and Marie Council. Released in 1982 as the lead single from Get Loose on RCA, it became one of King’s signature crossover hits, reaching No. 1 on Billboard’s Black Singles and Hot Dance/Disco charts and No. 17 on the Hot 100. Contemporary coverage praised its strong Kashif hook and King’s vocal delivery. The track remained a durable dance and R&B staple, widely covered and sampled in later years, and it has continued to circulate through reissues, compilations, and club culture. Its status as one of King’s best-known recordings has kept it in regular circulation well beyond its original chart run.
