Personnel includes: Heavy D.; Al B. Sure! (vocals). Producers: Eddie F., Heavy D, Teddy Riley, Andre Harrell, Jay Henry, Marley Marl. A year after debuting on wax with the 1986 single "Mr. Big Stuff," Heavy D & the Boyz released their first full-length effort, LIVING LARGE. Featuring production from Juice Crew mastermind Marley Marl, DJ Eddie F, Teddy Riley, and Uptown Records chief Andre Harrell, LIVING LARGE is a product of its era--heavy on hard-hitting drum tracks, 1980's synth arrangements, classic soul samples, and simplistic Run-D.M.C.-esque shout raps (much different from the smoother, laidback delivery that Heav is largely known for). While tracks like "The Overweight Lover's in the House," "Chunky But Funky," and "Overweighter" may overemphasize Heav's physical attributes, the crew gets more creative on "Moneyearnin' Mount Vernon"--a feel-good homage that blessed their hometown with a lasting alias.
