The Manhattans - That's How Much I Love You - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Digitally remastered and expanded edition of this 1974 . THAT'S HOW MUCH I LOVE YOU was the sixth studio album by legendary soul male vocal group The Manhattans. The Manhattans' second Columbia album was an unusual conceived affair, combining one LP side of new recordings with a second LP side of un-released tracks that the group had cut from their DeLuxe days, before signing with Columbia. The brilliant period of the early-to mid-70's soul, saw the group record the Top Ten R&B and Pop Top 40 hit InchDon't Take Your Love,Inch as well as the chart single InchSummertime in the City.Inch The latter song was certainly reminiscent of the early-70's Temptations' funk, while the former was very much a rich Philly soul-style ballad. The Philly soul path, in both it's ballad and funk modes, was also followed by some of the InchnewInch tracks, such as InchSave Our GoodbyesInch and the title song. While the older selections have a less Philly-fied vibe, as InchBlackbirdInch is much in line with the O'Jays' early-70's recordings and both InchStrange Old WorldInch and InchNursery RhymesInch again recall the funked-out Temptations, though the covers of InchFeverInch and InchA Change Is Gonna ComeInch were a little more old-school.
