Gene Chandler - I'll make the living if you make the loving worthwhile

This 12" has been playing a lot in my house recently - I picked it up at my local spot mainly because of the label, Bluebird also released L.A. Nights by Yasuko Agawa which is a great tune. This must be one of Gene Chandler finest moments - the stellar production floats on in about 100bpm and its got a huge hook. The sound really has stood the test of time, the lyrics however... I don't think they would go down today. But who cares - when Gene's singing it makes sense.
