About This Release:
When Terry Kane - a sound engineer who was barely twenty years old at the time - built an 8-track recording studio above Henry Stone's office space in the Hialeah area of Miami, he probably never envisaged that he was laying the bedrock for a creative hub that would spawn over 25 gold records and over 100 million record sales worldwide. In the process, it would help to make Henry Stone a legend of American music.
At one end of the spectrum, warehouse boy turned global superstar Harry Wayne Casey - better known as leader of K.C. & The Sunshine Band - was pumping out disco classics on a massive scale with ubiquitous airplay and sell-out shows. At the other, Rodney Matthew and his group Formula 1, were relying on the might of the T.K. distribution machine to propel them into the spotlight. As remarkable as their 1977 masterpiece on Du-Vern records was, it inevitably failed to have the seismic impact of The Sunshine Band's commercial dance pop.
For every success story like T-Connection, with their firebrand funk-disco fusion and major label achievements, there were equally talented acts such as Stevens And Foster who also called on Stone's services to showcase their vision: judging by the scarcity of original copies of their self-written and produced modern soul jewel on Jerri Records, they also failed to reach beyond the Sunshine state, save for the rarified ears of collectors and connoisseurs.
The sheer amount of records that came out of those modest premises at 495 SE 10th Court - about 8km from Downtown Miami (as the pink flamingo flies) - is mind boggling. With a huge roster of in-house labels as well as production and distribution deals, label boss Henry Stone was a passionate, busy, and exceptionally well connected man.
Stone would nurture the early careers of the likes of million seller Betty Wright, as well as provide a platform for Milton Wright and Leno Phillips (her older brothers) to express their creativity. Clarence Reid (AKA Blowfly) and Willie Clark penned a raft of amazing tracks for acts such as Jimmy 'Bo' Horne and Little Beaver (AKA Willie Hale, who would also write a wealth of material for others), while T.K. in-house band Miami's own Robert Moore also released records on yet another T.K. imprint; Blue Candle.
The music scene in Miami and indeed, Florida, at the time was fertile and moved quickly with the times; there were hit-makers and risk-takers, shining stars and those who never went far.
As a living document of Henry Stone's remarkable legacy, the diverse styles and ideas coming out of Miami-Dade County and beyond, as well as a glimpse at the successes and near-misses achieved by a dazzling array of artists at the time, this collection serves as an invaluable insight.

Been holding my piss through traffic, finally got home, about to turn the car off, then this cool cat starts the song with some English on the piano. I turned this up so loud so I could hear in the restroom in my house. Came out and the neighbors were vibing too.
Hahahaha right on! Such a good tune and good story. Don't make music like this no more. "The neighbors were vibing too"😂
I first heard this song on last Friday at Chipotles at Morgan State University and I couldn’t stop listening to this. How could anyone make music to be this good….?!
i cant belive i never heard this! this is music to ride to😎👍👍
1971
This song is so dope. Heard it for the first time last year. Play it once a week at least. They don't make music like this no more
I just found this 2 months ago! Badass song for sure
❤
I’m just saying that if I sayd that you would have been a god
This was the only song they made from what I gathered
When I heard this song I loved it and I never heard it before
Got the chills 5 seconds into the track.. Fuckin gem! Been jammin it a few years now n it never gets old.
I love this song and it makes my heart happy
When soul music meant somethink special
Firme jam!
Que tal. Musians can jam extra clean sometimes. 1955 to 1985 had some good Musica. Peace on Earth.
Awesome Tune
Lyrics ( Musixmatch)
There must be something I have said
To make you look my way
There must be something I could do
To make you love me too
You have aroused my desire
My soul is on fire
For your sweet love-n-tenderness
You leave me on
And then ya, turn to stone
Leaving me with loneliness
Your girl I'd gladly be
If you just sung a little guitar for me baby
I hope I'm not getting it out of line
Because honey you sure are finе
Can't you see that you have blown my mind
You've really blown my mind
All thе love you got there
I don't think you are aware of you are doing to me
You keep me confused wondering which words to use
To make you share your love with me
Your girl I'd gladly be
If you just sung a little guitar for me baby
Mhmm... Yeah
All the love you got there
I don't think you are aware of what you are doing to me
You keep me confused wondering which words to use
To make you share your love with me
Your girl I'd gladly be
If you just sung a little guitar for me baby
Mhmm... Yeah
ive found this on accident and its my fav song rn
Just found this song I love it ❤
There's must be something I can say, to make me look your way,
there's must be something I can do to make you love me too.
You have aroused my desire, my soul is on fire for your sweet love and tenderness
you lead me on and then you turn to stone, leaving me with loneliness, you girl I'd gladly be, if you just sock a little guitar to me

Someone could help me PLEASE! Do you know some song or band similar ? If you know please help to discover that amazing things
@Abraham Sink I gonna listen right now !
Am I too much biased or does this song really brings out some major brazilian vibes?
Nah, I can sense it too
Not really. This comes from black soul music. Similar to Al Green’s style.
@@lucasm4299 The USA version kind of Black Soul Music, not the Brazilian kind.
Does anyone know the sample used? I've heard the original but can't put my finger on it
this is the original song. MAVI has used this sample if that's what you mean.
