"I was only five years old when this album came out. It is still my favorite album of all time. Seven years, Soulful Love, Jealous man... and more. Back then, the medium was 8-track and everybody (and their mother) had one. I would listen to it over and over and over. Darn near forty years later, I'm still listening to this album over and over and over!!!



This particular album played tricks in how it was recorded. Vocals on the left, horns on the right. Even though I had (many times) wished that this album had been re-recorded, I'm glad (now) that they didn't. No need to mess with perfection.



The music, itself, was (in my opinion) Curtis & co. at their hungriest. Too many times, we see artists after they have "made it" and they seem to lose something after that. Curtis never lost "it" and always had "it". This album is a classic and a must-have for the old-skool players.
