So lately I've had a falling out with music, but were now in couples counseling and trying to work it out.I spoke with a specialist yesterday (hi SOI) and he recommended I spend some time getting reacquainted with this albumsure enough it worked. Fantastic album. Side A is great from start to finish. Theres a couple cheesy covers and remakes on the 2nd side (Money & Knock on Wood) but overall this LP is a winner.What else is good from '76?

    I haven't heard that album, but seriously 1976 seems to be the year of crappy releases. Thats why I'm trying to get a couple recommendations

    the track "what did you do with my love" is really nice and he does a good cover version of "uphill peace of mind".

    New Birth - Blind Baby. Two killer cuts, Grandaddy & Blind Man. Rest of it is pretty tepid.

    from your description, this does not sound like it qualifies as a "great" LP.

    but here's one

    lemme guess: leave the same garb, just replace ol' bill with a recently emerged-from-the-closet lesbian that records herself blowing conch shells and throwing owl pellets at windows and chopping the heads off of mushrooms with a spoon on her countertop while reciting edited emily dickinson poems, and you would drop hundreds on it.

    it's a good album. it's grimy bill, not soft bill.

    Lamont Dozier production. Solid. $3 everywhere.

    I expected the Chocolate Milk to get flack, but the Notations?

    Do you dislike Chicago-style vocal group soul in general?

    As for the Choc Milk, I just enjoy the sound of mid-70's Allen Toussaint productions like this.
    I can see it not being people's thing, but I think even if you aren't into it, you can't really call it bad.

    There's nothing I like more--but this record is tepid.

    Wow - I'll have to dig it out and give it another listen.
    I had fond memories of it, I'm curious to see how they hold up.
