Headlines is an album by the R&B group Midnight Star, released in 1986.[3] It was the last album to include the Calloway brothers, who left to form Calloway.[3][4]
The album peaked at No. 42 on the UK Albums Chart.[5]
The Los Angeles Times wrote that "there isn't enough heavyweight material here ... These kind of 'Headlines' only rate a cursory scan."[6] The Ottawa Citizen thought that "the sultry voice of Belinda Lipscomb on two slow dancers, 'Searching for Love' and 'Stay Here by My Side', make Headlines a complete and solid effort from Midnight Star."[7]
