wonderful :)) ktf

Monster modern soul. Props have to go to Gene Page as well as Barry White for this - Gene's arranging (particularly strings and horns) with everyone from Love Unlimited to the Four Tops was second to none. Peace.

i had this record a few years back before i soul most of my collection a ooh well least i can still hear it now thnx
-
For comparison's sake, here's how the Love Unlimited version (with the same instrumental backing track) sounded:

Welcome to Soul Heaven.....WOW!!!

@phillyboy25 - I actually prefer this version to the "definitive" rendition (with the same instrumental backing track) by Love Unlimited of a year later; I noticed the mix was a bit different from here. (And Barry's own recording, on his "Can't Get Enough" LP, seemed to stretch it a bit.)
-
I figured out the month and year of this release by two other "bookmark" singles pressed by Monarch:
- "In the Rain" by The Dramatics (Volt 4058, released February 1972): ∆87534
- "(If Loving You Is Wrong) I Don't Want to Be Right" by Luther Ingram (Koko 2111, released April 1972): ∆88517
Also . . . Giorgio's "Son of My Father" (Dunhill 4304) would've been released the same month as the Dramatics classic, if based on its delta number: ∆87559.

God bless you for posting this...I thought I was the only one who knows this song...I was 19 when I first heard this....it blew my mind! It was Barry White soon to be a major star...he tried to duplicate this song many times...but this version was not to be duplicated...it just is sooooo damn good! I thank you again...since my copy is a little scratched....they just don't make them like this anymore...RIP Barry....I'll always love this....
