Comments and Reviews


W.B.lbl ● 6th Apr 2024		And that Billy Paul LP, at the earliest, may've been May or June '70.



W.B.lbl ● 6th Apr 2024		Added Columbia Pitman variant. The earliest this may've come out would've been July 1970; but not only the Chess matrix numbers but also the Columbia Chicago XCSV numbers pinpoint this timeline. And yes, 1969 was when these tracks were recorded. A few from those initial O'Jays sessions with Gamble-Huff didn't make it onto this album, namely "One Night Affair's" B side, "There's Someone (Waiting Back Home)," and "Christmas Ain't Christmas New Years Ain't New Years Without The One You Love."



candiman SUBS 14th Nov 2022		The only LP I own that has a drill hole through the label. They aimed well because the sleeve has one too!



EMB2014 21st May 2016		Yet another reason never to trust liner notes, since this was indeed a 1970 release, as were two of its four A-sides. On the other hand, the recordings might all have been recorded in 1969. Don't remember that this one made the national charts, but its 1973 repackage on PIR (KZ 32120) did hit Billboard's Top Lp's at #156. The same situation also may apply to Neptune 201, Billy Paul's EBONY WOMAN. I've often seen it listed as a 1969 release, but like the O'Jays platter, seems to have been released in the summer of '70, and this one did make the soul chart beginning with the 8/1/70 issue (and a reissue also charted in 1973 on PIR KZ 32118).



RogerFoster 21st May 2016		The year of release of this is stated as being 1969 in the notes of this 1994 Epic/Legacy CD release.
