  • A great version with a great groove but if you've heard Marlena Shaws version then the vocals on this don't compare.

  • Another favorite cut by The Undisputed Truth was "You Make Your Own Heaven and Hell On Earth"

  • The original version of this tune was recorded by none other than the late Nick Ashford himself (Verve 10599) - a year before The Fifth Dimension included it on their Stoned Soul Picnic LP. Love the ending on this version but the Undisputed Truth's best were "Help Yourself," "Law of the Land,' "UFO's," "You + Me + Love" , "Smiling Faces Sometimes" and "You Got The Love I Need.""

  • @fillols Think you have that confused with California Dreamin

  • @kydkahlil The first version was recorded by The Messengers back in 1966. R.I.P. songwriter Nick Ashford.

  • also a hit of the Mmmas and the Papas in the 60"s

  • Whew!!! More like L.A. Ethereal! I was too young (meaning broke) back in the late 60s to get the UT album. But if this any indication, they should have stuck it out for a couple more years. Thanks for the post. Putting it right in my playlist.

  • @heatherspeaks

    that was pretty lame but yeah this rocks

  • Marlena Shaw's version is MUCH more powerful. Vocals on this BLOW

  • Wow...so MANY versions of this great song...and with each one I find somethign about it I like.
