Loving Power
by Andrew Hamilton Original Impressions Sam Gooden and Fred Cash united with newcomers Ralph Johnson and Reggie Torian on Loving Power. The charting title track was written by Chuck Jackson and Marvin Yancy of Natalie Cole and Independents fame. A fine rendition of the O'Jays' "Sunshine" has Ralph Johnson sounding like Eddie Levert, and received play on many R&B stations. Fred Cash leads the soulful, comical "I Wish I'd Stayed In Bed," written by Ed Townsend of "Let's Get It On" fame. However, if you're looking for that Curtis Mayfield sound, look elsewhere.
