Arrival is the fourth studio album by British funk group Cymande. Recorded in 1974, it was released in 1981 through Paul Winley Records.[3]

Critical reception[]

Record Collector wrote: "Incredibly dull ballads alternate with less-than-inspired attempts at floor-fillers, with, perhaps, only the closing 'It’s Magic', a Philly International-inspired groove, coming close to scaling the heights of earlier gems."[3] No Depression urged readers to avoid it, writing that it was put out to "cash in on [Cymande's] club cache."[4]
