Cycles (Redbone album)

Cycles is the seventh album by Native American/Mexican American band Redbone, released on the RCA label in 1977.

[1] The lyrics on this album have substantially less to do with Native American history and traditions in comparison to many of the band's previous efforts and the music employs a more disco-inspired feel with longer compositions to match.

The band's contract with Epic Records was then terminated and they were dropped from the label.

Then Linda Creed, who was a fan from Philadelphia who had written 'Betcha By Golly Wow' for The Stylistics and 'The Greatest Love Of All' for Whitney Houston, signed with a West Coast company called Far Out Productions which was working with War.

Ex-Bloodstone drummer Eddie Summers, who co-wrote one track on Cycles, would also perform on the band's only live album, recorded the same year.
