Coffee [1977] - You're Lovin' Ain't As Good As Mine [Lovelite #LR-500]

Sheer quality from the same group that brought us the disco version of Ruby Andrews' Casanova in 1980. One of only 8 (and possibly the last) glorious releases on the Lovelite label which was predominantly a vehicle for The Lovelites, one of the finest Chicago girl groups there ever was who received very little recognition outside of soul circles, but they never recorded a bad record (I feel a profile on them coming on!).

It was released in 1977, but sounds earlier. It fits more in the crossover mould, rather than modern soul, but these are just arbritary labels, it's a damn fine piece of music which I've had for years and is still relatively cheap to pick up, but wait until one of the 'big boys' start playing it and the price will soar, when the 'sheep' latch onto it. Buy it now before then.
