    This has been reissued on LP by the label VinylMePlease, who also put out a classic Donny Hathaway LP a year or two ago. Thanks.

    Im gettin more Edwin Starr vibes than Marvin Gaye….but hes obviously rubbing elbows with the same session players.
    The last track reminds me of Al Green - Right Now.

    I found some information on him in the Library of Congress Catalog of Copyright entries. “Norman Feels” was a pseudonym for Norman Soloman.

      Whoever owns it must be clearing them because I've heard lots of these sampled on big albums

    It was just another early 70s easy-listening album to me. It was nice, but none of the songs stood out to me. .. then i heard “Until You Come Back To Me”.
    That was a beautiful cover. i think he outdid Aretha, and that is no easy feat.
    Then again, i have no idea which version came first.
    “Where or When” is one of my favorite standards. Norman’s version sounds lovely.
    It’s a great, soulful effort, but Barbra Streisand has spoiled me.
    i may have a bias.
    This album has a great sound. FABULOUS orchestration, but i think i would like it better if if was all instrumental.
    Norman has a nice voice, but it’s forgettable. The music outshines him. He and the lyrical content almost feel unnecessary, and that’s very unfortunate.

      @@reelblack Years ago, I saw, not a full documentary, but a side note on the urbanization and building of public parks after FDR'S NEW DEAL. And growing up, I heard stories from elders.
