About 2nd Wave [Expanded Edition]

2nd Wave is the second studio album by Surface, released in October 1988 on Columbia Records. A total of five singles were released from the album: "I Missed" completely missed the Billboard Hot 100 while climbing to number 3 on the US R&B charts. "Closer Than Friends" made the pop charts at number 57, while becoming the first of a quartet of R&B number ones for the group (with "Shower Me with Your Love", "You Are My Everything" and "The First Time" being the other three). Of all the songs on the album, "Shower Me with Your Love" enjoyed the most success, crossing over and reaching number 5 on the pop charts. The single "Can We Spend Some Time" reached number 5 on the R&B charts but was not a pop success. Based on the chart (both pop and R&B) success of the singles, the album peaked at number 56 but was certified platinum (albeit six years later, in 1994). more »
