I've Got So Much to Give

Album Notes & Community Reviews

Stepping out from his role as producer and songwriter for Love Unlimited, the deep-voiced maestro released a phenomenally successful solo debut that fundamentally defined the sound of 1970s romantic soul. Heavily orchestrated with sweeping strings, the extended arrangements often begin with intimate, spoken-word monologues before exploding into lush, intensely sensual grooves. The record established a highly influential, cinematic blueprint for urban contemporary R&B.
