Ian Dewhirst Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Love this! Is it its first release on vinyl? Cheers Daryl First time on 7". I can't believe this was actually issued on one of those George Clinton & Family albums in the early 90's. Probably sold about 10 copies as it was Volume 4..... https://www.discogs.com/Various-George-Clinton-Family-Series-Testing-Positive-4-The-Funk/release/1281978 Recorded in Detroit in '79 by all accounts. Tremendous vocal from Levi and great song - the proper title is "Love Enough To Care". Could be another "Prayin'".....? Ian D Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

This can and does happen. On our license agreement from the guy who wrote and produced it, and the master it says "Love Enough To Care" Phil Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Ian Dewhirst Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Hi Ian It says on the album that the title is 'To care', is that wrong then? Why would they put a wrong title on an album?? Hiya Steve, Those albums were pretty much cobbled together from so many out-takes and unreleased sessions that the correct information probably got obscured in the process. Plus the album in question was the fourth volume so "To Care" was probably the working title that had been written on the tapes I presume. All they had to do was listen to the track LOL. It is the chorus after all....... Ian D Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Ian Dewhirst Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 bloody superb -please put the link up on here and on the crossover thread to purchase -ive posted the soundclip link on the xover thread-this is a superb record!!! BAZ A Glad ya like it Baz. I couldn't believe that such a great Levi Stubbs vocal was buried away in these sessions. Apparently the Four Tops were working in the studio next door and heard the song and insisted that they do a version! I presume this was cut after they left ABC and prior to them going to Casablanca....... Ian D Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Steve Plumb Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Great track - Good luck with this fellas Flanny was the first person I heard playing this. He played it at the Orwell many moons ago and me, Baz & Steve Connor all went and bought it on Vol 4 the day after! It got many a hammering after that. Think the boys at Soul in the Sun got onto it too! Cracking little dancer! btw The LP has another version of Fantastic Four's 'Live up to what she thinks' (by Funkadelic I think?) It's surprisingly good too, although not in same league as FF orig! Cheers Steve Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest Paul Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 (edited) Great track, although I'm biased of course because I like anything featuring Levi Stubbs. And don't overlook the last Soul Intention single by The Superlatives. Well worth checking out and featuring the eternal favourite 'I Still Love You' on the flip side - sounding better than you've ever heard it before.
