Those songs that deserved to .....but somehow didn't ...
the timing wasn't right .... bad promotion .... something got in the way from their making it .
Let's bring them into the light !!
Share the wronged soul songs you know of ! :icon_biggrin:
I'll start with this one :
From the same album that would bring us a number that facilitated the disco explosion .
I think that took everyone by surprise....
they thought this would be the song to break The Hues Corporation .....
They named their debut album after it anyway ....
arranged by the impeccable Gene Page:icon_cool:

Rems: what was you favorite scene from "Car Wash"? There we so many I enjoyed it would be hard to pick just one. I liked when Calvin's mother "went upside" his head....I liked Lloyd and Floyd's dance routine too. But I still recall the first time I saw the film, and I'm pretty sure it was the first time I saw 2 Black men embracing so tenderly.

I think so :
in the hands of Norman Whitfield .....

This is definitely one of the most underrated ballads I know, when I bought the LP it was strictly on the strength that the credits had Teena listed as producer, then when I heard this, I couldn't understand why it wasn't #1 on all the Quiet Storm charts! this is Teena at her best!
