.com Taylor came up on the gospel circuit and was cutting records for Sam Cooke's label when he was a kid. His first secular recordings for Stax were about taking the blues to church, but on this one, backed by Booker T. and the MGs, Isaac Hayes, and the Memphis Horns, he breaks out into a soul blues spectacular. The title cut is priceless--"Who's making love/to your old lady/while you was out making love"--but throughout the album, the backing musicians stretch out while Johnnie wails his woes. All in all, a great mix of soul and blues. --Robert Gordon

I like one song of this CD
I like one song of this CD. I would have purchased the song but wanted to see if I would like more of the songs. Turns out not so much but that is on me. No matter, I'm keeping the CD.

Old School Soul
Not much to say except that Johnnie's music is good listening and dancing music. I grew up listening to all the different artists that sang "Soul Music" and I love them all. I bought this particluar CD because I did not have it and I wanted to add it to my collection.

I can't believe that's me the first in wrting about this
Johnnie Taylor must be remembered as one of the best southern soul singers, along with his Stax-mates (Otis Redding, William Bell, Eddie Floyd) and James Carr or Arthur Alexander. He's got a tender voice, that suits perfectly in bluesy, but also country-gospel soul stuff, and this record contains the danceable title track, that was later covered byblue note's funky-jazz sax machine, Lou Donaldson.

this is SUB SUB -not Johnny Taylor as the album cover shown implies
I am browsing this because I am a fan of Doves -which is what late '90s Manchester Dance Band Sub Sub became after their studio and equipment were burned in a fire.I will return with a new review, after I have listened to it. I just wanted to correct the erroneous impression that the amazon page has given.
