1979 recording and the first with singer Cheryl Bentyne, who replaced Laurel Masse. Contains quot;Twilight Tone/Twilight Zone,quot; the group's first U.S. hit-basically a disco number that borrows from the television theme song of the same name. quot;Birdland,quot; the Weather Report original that, with the addition of lyrics by Jon Hendricks, became a staple of Manhattan Transfer's repertoire and one of their most popular songs-and their first Grammy winner. quot;Body and Soulquot; is the Phil Mattson arrangement, and quot;Foreign Affairquot; was arranged by Gene Puerling (sung a cappella) and conducted by Clare Fischer! (Can't beat the talent!) quot;Nothing You Can Do About Itquot; has a catchy refrain and piano motive that won't let go.
