It's not even soul - in my opinion of course. At the time it came out all you could hear on the radio was an unremitting stream of utter tripe - peddled mainly by the knuckle dragging cretins on radio 1 et al. So frustrating that at a time when so much brilliant soul music was being made all we could hear was Mud, Abba, Q***n etc. Never heard the likes of Latimore, Dramatics, Leroy Hutson for example just crap and more crap. Been boiling my piss for almost 50 years now - time for a lie down!
