An Imitation Of Love was the first album from Millie Jackson on Jive/RCA, with which she signed in 1985. "Hot! Wild! Unrestricted! Crazy Love" and "Love Is a Dangerous Game" were both singles that became Top 10 Hits on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles and Tracks Chart. The album reached #119 on the Billboard Album Charts but was a far bigger success on the R&B charts, reaching #16 there. It was re-issued on CD in 2013 by the Funkytowngrooves label, remastered and with bonus tracks.
