First off if you don’t know, this has to be the most underrated album of all time, by any artist. It is probably neglected since it came out two years after ‘Best of’ which has his most famous songs. Of all the classic albums ever, this has to be the most ‘adult’. I’ve often said this is a religious album, since this 36 year old man is clearly on a mission from God. From the first song where he sings “if there is something about my lovin’ that don’t please you, tell me, oh tell me and I’ll change that too”, the next where he sings “you know my baby told me,
she said better listen, you better come on home to me baby you don’t know what your missin’” to ‘Good Lover’,the single, where he sings “I ain’t got no mansion, no diamond ring, big fine car, I don’t have a thing. But I’m a natural born lover, yea, I’m a real good lover..now tell me baby, which one of us would you rather?”…I could go on…but you are better off listening yourself. There is never a doubt what is on this man’s mind…from the black and pink cover (like roast beef, black on the outside, pink on the inside:) to the non-stop suggestive lyrics…
