Smokey Robinson's debut solo album, Smokey, was released in June 1973 by Tamla Records and features the singles, "Sweet Harmony," "Baby Come Close," and "Just My Soul Responding."
Naked & Warm is the fifth studio album by Bill Withers and is even funkier than his debut. "Here Withers returns to the simple ways of his past, working five or six musicians for the kind of hard groove that doesn't have many parallels".
Al Green Explores Your Mind is the eighth album by soul singer Al Green, originally released in 1974. Includes the U.S. #7 hit "Sha-La-La (Make Me Happy)" and the original version of "Take Me to the River", later covered by Talking Heads.
