As a Junior in High School in the early 70's, I started to deejay at house parties. DISCO was about to be born, but I still had to play music at the House Parties and "QUINCES" I played at. This was one of the albums I used. It actually is the SAME album I used. I took it out of its sleeve for the first time since, maybe 1984 when I played it for a special person at their wedding. This album had some fantastic soulful music that kept them dancing. Usually slow. The CLASSIC, "CALL ME" was a favorite. But so was "HERE I AM"(COME AND TAKE ME). Can't leave out the often covered classic "YOU OUGHT TO BE WITH ME". That is THREE very CLASSIC songs on a CLASSIC album! What is missing is the not-quite a classic, "I'M SO LONESOME I COULD CRY". Four great songs out of eight. In any book, that is good. On my scale from 1-10 it is good enough to get a CLASSIC TEN!!!
