Omnivore Basks in ‘The Glow of Love’ on Expanded Reissue by Change

September 29, 2025 by Joe Marchese | No Comments

Between 1980 and 1985, the group known as Change released six albums built around dance rhythms, big hooks, and powerful vocals. The group’s name was spot-on, as during that period, Change’s line-up was in constant flux – yet the quality of the music delivered consistently. On October 3, Omnivore Recordings will revisit Change’s debut album, 1980’s The Glow of Love, on CD in an expanded and remastered edition.

Late last year, Demon Music Group’s Edsel label chronicled Change’s discography on CD in a handsome 7-CD box set. Everything and More: Complete Recordings 1980-2019 is decked out…

The Glow of Love: Groove Line Records Compiles The Music of Change, Featuring Luther Vandross, More

January 14, 2016 by Joe Marchese | 2 Comments

If ever a group lived up to its name, that group was Change. The brainchild of French-Italian music impresario and producer Jacques Fred Petrus, in collaboration with Italian-based producer/arranger Mauro Malavasi and bassist Davide Romani, Change released six albums between 1980 and 1985. Built on infectiously danceable rhythms, melodic hooks and sublimely soulful vocals, the sound of Change was primarily created by a rotating cast of Italian-based musicians and America-based vocalists. Groove Line Records has recently celebrated the legacy of Change in truly definitive style with Reach for the Sky: Anthology, a…
