Description:

Straightforward reissue of the MALACO RECORDS classic in Japan! Bobby "Blue" Brand is a veteran soul/blues singer who has been active since the early 60s. After a long period of time with ABC and MCA, Brand joined Malaco in the mid-80s, and this is his sixth release from there. The album features many laid-back numbers, including a cover of Bill Withers' famous hit "Ain't No Sunshine When She's Gone," and is further enhanced by the skilled backing choruses of Frederick Knight and Jewel Bass. Recorded in 1989. First CD release in Japan. Supervised by Shinichi Iwama (Super Cry Inc.). Includes commentary and uses the original jacket.
