''Madam Butterfly'' is the seventh album by American soul/R&B group Tavares, produced by Bobby Martin and released in 1979 on the Capitol label. By this stage in the group's career, they had become known as a disco act due to successful singles such as "Heaven Must Be Missing an Angel", "Whodunit" and "More Than a Woman. ''Madam Butterfly'' is however noted for its lack of anything approaching disco material, and as such is considered to be more akin in style to the group's 1973-1975 albums than to their 1976-1978 Freddie Perren-produced output. "Never Had a Love Like This Before", one of several slow jams on the album, became a top 5 R&B hit and has subsequently become a quiet storm classic, while tracks such as "I'm Back for More" are more funk-based than listeners had come to expect from Tavares. ''Madam Butterfly'' performed respectably on the R&B chart, peaking at #13, but failed to achieve substantial sales in the crossover market. Its reputation has grown over the years and it is now considered among the group's best. == Track listing == # "Straight From Your Heart" (Len Ron Hanks, Zane Grey) - 4:23 # "Games, Games" (Sam Dees) - 4:30 # "Madam Butterfly" (Johnny Simon, Kenny Stover) - 4:29 # "Let Me Heal the Bruises" (Sam Dees) - 4:24 # "Never Had a Love Like This Before" (Len Ron Hanks, Zane Grey) - 4:32 # "One Telephone Call Away" (Benorce Blackmon) - 4:22 # "My Love Calls" (Sam Dees) - 5:05 # "Positive Forces" (J.
