(1995)Professional ratings Review scores Source Rating allmusic [2] More of the Night is an album released by R&B/soul band The Whispers in 1990, as the follow-up to their massively successful 1987 album, Just Gets Better with Time. While it did not sell quite as well as its predecessor, More of the Night did include several hits, including three R&B top 10 tunes: "My Heart, Your Heart," "Innocent," and "Is it Good to You." The album went Gold.
Written by Gary Taylor, "My Heart Your Heart" was originally performed in 1988 by Taylor himself, with the exact same musical backing and arrangement used here, and appeared as a bonus track on his Compassion album.[3] Taylor actually produced the version by The Whispers, who turned it into a big hit.
