RJ's Latest Arrival is a 7-piece Detroit band formed in 1976 by keyboardist Ralph
James (R.J.) Rice who are perhaps best know (this side of the Atlantic
at least) for their rare groove classic "Heaven In Your Arms" from their 1986 album "Hold On" also released as a single.
The female lead singer is his wife DeDe Leitta. A rather grainy
video of it is included below for any unfamiliar with it.
They had three US R&B Top 10 hits in the 80s with "Shackles", "Hold On" and "Off The Hook (With Your Love)" none of which troubled the Hot 100, although they almost did with
another song "Baby I'm Sorry" which peaked at #107.
They broke up in 1990 but are back with a good new single "One Step At A Time" featuring hip-hop duo Slum Village (Young RJ (RJ's son) & T3) on 2 Jun which has been very well received. They have now produced a music video for the song.
Going by the sleeve photo and the video they
are now reduced to a quintet.
