Five Star – Rock The World (1988) Vinyl LP Record
You may also like
Rock The World is the fourth studio album by Five Star, released in 1988 on RCA Records. Produced by Nick Martinelli, it arrived as the Pearson family group were navigating a shift in the pop landscape — new jack swing and house music were beginning to reshape the charts, and Five Star responded with a slightly harder-edged, more contemporary sound while retaining their trademark vocal polish and melodic instincts. Though the album marked a commercial step down from their mid-80s peak, it remains a well-crafted and underappreciated entry in their catalogue, and at £19.99 represents a collectable piece of late-80s British pop-soul vinyl.
Stand-Out Tracks
- Another Weekend — The lead single and the album's most immediate track; a smooth, groove-driven pop-soul number with a confident, radio-ready feel and strong vocal harmonies throughout.
- Let Me Be Yours — A warm, mid-tempo ballad that showcases the group's softer, more romantic side; one of the album's most melodically satisfying moments.
- Someone's In Love — Included here in its 7" radio mix; a polished, hook-laden pop track that demonstrates the group's knack for crafting accessible, feel-good singles.
- Rock My World — An energetic, uptempo track that gives the album its title spirit; leans into a more contemporary production style and adds welcome momentum to the first side.
- Rescue Me — A strong album closer with a soulful, impassioned vocal performance; a rewarding deeper cut for collectors who appreciate Five Star beyond the singles.
