Under Wraps (Shaun Cassidy album)

1978 studio album by Shaun Cassidy

Under Wraps is the third studio album by American singer Shaun Cassidy, released in 1978. Less successful commercially than its two predecessors, Under Wraps was an early indication that Cassidy's popularity was beginning to lose momentum, as the album barely cracked the top 40 on the US Billboard charts, peaking at #33, and scoring no major hit singles. "Our Night" peaked at #80 on the US Hot 100.[1]

The album features the song "It's Like Heaven", which was co-written by founding Beach Boys member Brian Wilson, along with Rocky Pamplin and Diane Rovell. Wilson also co-wrote the song "Cruisin' to Harlem" on the album Getting It in the Street by David Cassidy, Shaun Cassidy's half-brother.

Critical reception

The Globe and Mail wrote that "the musical slickness that the best corporate money can buy has pushed his latest record into competition in the musical (as well as the television-fanzine) market, really the first time that one of his records hasn't brought an immediate, incredulous shower of derision."[2]
