Review by Shanna Samul

Treasure, the 1980 album by Brothers Johnson, is a funky and energetic collection of R&B tracks that showcase the duo's impressive musicianship and songwriting skills. The album features a mix of danceable grooves, smooth ballads, and upbeat funk anthems that are sure to get listeners moving.

From the opening track "Get the Funk Out Ma Face," with its infectious horn riff and catchy chorus, to the soulful ballad "This Had to Be," Brothers Johnson deliver a diverse range of sounds and styles that keep the album fresh and engaging from start to finish. Other standout tracks include the funky "Light Up the Night," the smooth and jazzy "Smilin' on Ya," and the upbeat and danceable "Stomp!"

Throughout the album, Brothers Johnson's impeccable musicianship is on full display, with tight rhythms, intricate guitar work, and powerful vocals that showcase their signature sound. The production is also top-notch, with a crisp and clear sound that highlights the duo's musical prowess.
