The top side is a slowed down, ballad version of The Isley Brothers, Holland, Dozier, Holland and Sylvia Moy penned, Motown classic "This Old Heart Of Mine" and the flip is a deep soul cut "Either You Love Me Or Leave Me" written by Homer Banks and Carl Hampton. and released by Jeanette 'Baby' Washington in 1976 on Sixth Avenue which failed to chart even on US R&B.
