Could It Be I'm Falling in Love - Bass Cover

"Could It Be I'm Falling in Love" is a 1972 song recorded by the American R&B vocal group The Spinners (known as "Detroit Spinners" in the UK). The song was co-written by Melvin and Mervin Steals who were two songwriter brothers working for Atlantic, who were sometimes credited as "Mystro and Lyric." It was produced by Thom Bell, recorded at Philly's Sigma Sound Studios and the house band MFSB provided the backing. Bobby Smith sings lead through most of the song while Philippé Wynne handles vocal duties on the song's outro. Released as the follow-up single to the group's first hit for Atlantic Records,
"I'll Be Around," "Could It Be I'm Falling in Love" would equal the success of its predecessor, peaking at number one on the R&B chart and number four on the Billboard Pop Singles chart and selling over one million copies. The song also found success in the UK, peaking at number eleven on the UK Singles Chart.

Awesome cover, Sal! Those strings sound like they might be mellowing a bit? Sounds great!

[@oldtank66]

Thanks so much oldskool, I like the Spinners and always wanted to do some covers of their songs. The TI's have mellowed a bit. I think I will be looking to replace the pickups again, maybe try Fender vintage this time :)
