Finished Touch - Need To Know You Better (1978) Motown LP Only - Rare Soul/Funk (MP3)

Have you ever bought an album for just one track when it was,nt available as a 45 in the UK or USA (but released in Brazil ?)..Thats just what i did with this album to obtain the killer track "New Frontiers" for Michael McGloiry,s brilliant guitar work that builds and builds ..pure bliss!...Still only availble on vinyl after all these years. I heard the track in a club in london played as a then new release,and thought "gotta get that" , what a floor packer! The band were led by kenny Stover who went on to join Leo,s sunshipp as producer/arranger on their excellent album "we need each other" which is again a one off as this, but what an album!..Back to this group Michael went on to stay at motown joining the group Switch.Strange thing is these guys were not officially a group or band they just happened to be singers/musicians employed at motown and got the break to record this album by sheer chance....having Jermaine Jackson as a buddy must have helped. A couple of tracks did ok chart wise but nothing to shout about.
