You should be able to find it on what I think was either his first or
second album. I think the album is called 'To Be Continued' If my memory
serves me well it also had the most wicked slow jam versions of 'The Look
of Love' and 'By The Time I Get To Phoenix' which just ooooooozzzzzzzeeee
a sensitive, caring sharing luuurrrrvvveee thang. I would rate those
songs as the ultimate 70's testosterone filled love songs, even outdoing
Teddy Pendergrass's attempt to turn down the lights, pour the champagne
and get DIRTY!!!!! The only other act that consistently oozed the old sex
and hormones was the Isleys. However whereas Issac was all masculine
grunt, the Isleys were more you ethereal seducers.

ISSAC IS KING!!!!!
