Donald Smith has such a soulful, distinctive sound. He and his brother were (are?) a formidable combination. Thanks.

THE MOST under-rated, under played love song of all time. If you are not in love...this song will get you there!

I don't know why I thought michael henderson was singing. Regardless, this is such a sensual song

[rjam1974]

This is the sickest love song!!
