It was Al Kent who composed this at Golden World Studios, (Motown Studio B) and as said already, he did the Ric-Tic single of it on RT 127 which I have. There were certainly members of Motown's Funk Brothers too. He also produced the version that the Supremes did too!
Bloke from Great Harwood put us on to this this. He was reputed to have had his throat cut in Miami in 1974. Trying hard to to remember his name. He was years ahead of the game. He still remains a northern soul enigma in Harwood. God, my memory is shite... it'll come to me soon ;-((

Another interesting post. Her attack is so relaxed, a departure from other tracks.
I remember this tune, but didn't connect the vocalist. I prefer Ms. Taylor openly expressing herself freely, not working a formula [right down to the modulation].
What was the name of her band? I can't find that out anywhere. The best bands of all times were Willie Mitchell with the Memphis sound, (Al Green), James Jamerson with "Motown". This band definitely is in third. I love this band!!
The track was produced in Detroit,so my guess is the Ric-Tic/Golden World sessionmen. maybe some of the Funk Brothers (Motown) thrown in there too. Mc Kinley Jackson (who would be a sessionman and arranger at Invictus/Hot Wax) had some involvement with this tune as well.
Thank you soln4suhreborn. I should have known the funk brothers were somewhere involved. This song may not have been a big hit; but this song you can feel, one of the best! Thank you for the info! peace!
LEGEND of a track brings back great youth club memories, first released on glo whiz i think .. remembers hearing this along with jjbarnes/jackie wilson/barbara acklin way back in 60's ... THESE WERE TRACKS D'J'S OF WHEEL AND TORCH ETC INFLUENCED .. ONE OF BEST POSTS ON TUBE THANK YOU
Man! Did my MOM play this song! I was a about four. I LUV the bass and drums. I love this song!! Thanks Soln4suhreborn. This song is a rare find. Thanks for sharing!

Still, any exposure for Gloria Taylor rocks.
