What city you from?.

I've only heard this in London

I used to hear that back in the mid-80's during cookouts, breh.

Got drowned-out by the veritable plethora of funk/R n B hits that were out at the time, though.

I live in NJ.

Here's my contribution to this thread. Always thought this song shoulda been bigger than it turned out to be for this artist.....

Here's another overlooked joint. Only overlooked 'cause of his major hits.......



And a duet with Natalie Cole.....

Unless you listen to this whole album, you'll never hear this song.......

That definitely sound like a Jersey jam.

I really wanna learn more bout the Jersey scene. NYC gets all the attention, but Jersey had its own special thing

One my favorite covers from an overlooked album

Never heard that Ruffin song till this came out

This song is underrated. Cameo >>>>

I also love this cover of the song done by a group named Twice and produced by D’Angelo.

YES!!!

Man y’all have some great taste. When I posted some of these songs on KTT they didn’t know what they were. Smh.. and those people call themselves R&B heads.

Tamia That's one meant for slow love in the a.m. or pillow talk...always love when the strings kick in

 

[brownsugah]

YES at My Dear!! One of my faves from them!
