From a Girl's Point of View We Give to You... Love Unlimited 1972 Album

Love Unlimited

Love Unlimited's debut was the rough female equivalent of an early 70's Isaac Hayes record, packed with supposedly simmering soul tunes interspersed with vocal "raps", to make the record seem more exalted and dramatic. For Ike, that formula worked fairly well, but for Love Unlimited, it was generally a miss. The spoken word sections at best didn't add anything to the record, while at worst...while the material does get better as you move through, although for something relatively short, it dragged in general. If the name sounds familiar in any way, they also happened to be Barry White's backing group, and White produced this record, along with most of the others released by the trio.
