Two Places at the Same Time
Introduction '''''Two Places at the Same Time''''' is the third studio album by Raydio, the group led by Ray Parker Jr.
History Like the two albums that came before it, it again features 8 tracks; one of them, "Until The Morning Comes" was written by Parker and vocalist Arnell Carmichael. For another song, "Tonight's The Night", Parker teamed up with famed keyboard player Herbie Hancock, and Hancock received a co-writing credit.The album featured another pop hit; though it wasn't as successful, the title track reached number 30 on the pop charts, number 6 on the R&B charts, and number 34 on the UK Singles Chart. The second single, "For Those Who Like To Groove", charted at number 14 on R&B. The album itself reached a peak of number 33.A quick clipping of the album's first song, "It's Time to Party Now", appeared in the background of the following year's Paul Newman crime drama movie, ''Fort Apache, The Bronx'' in a scene where Paul Newman's character is arresting prostitutes in an attempt to get leads on the murders of two rookie officers at the movie's beginning.
