A class slab of Chicago soul, I guess you'd label this as a beat ballad. Released in 1965 on Constellation but did absolutely nothing, it didn't even enter the US R&B chart!
I found this whilst going through my albums as it appears on ' The Girl Don't Care' LP from 1967 on Brunswick, so checked to see if it ever got a 45 release. Written by Gerald Sims.
Gene Chandler [1966] - Bet You Never Thought [Constellation #C-166]
Whilst we're here, another track I've always liked from the album is 'Bet You Never Thought'. This got a 45 release on the flip to 'Baby That's Love' in 1966 on Constellation, another one that didn't bother the US R&B chart.
Gene Chandler [1966] - (I'm Just A) Fool For You [Constellation #C-167]
And yet another great track, co-written by Gerald Sims and Carl Davis, from the album which got a release as a flip side, this time to 'Buddy Ain't It A Shame' on the next Constellation release and didn't see any chart action.
Gene Chandler [1967] - To Choose [Brunswick #BL 54124]
To round this off here's a great deep soul ballad which is album only.
