Most of the album was recorded at United Sound Systems in Detroit, then owned by Don Davis. USS was recently saved from the wrecking ball during reconstruction of Interstate 94 in 2022 through the efforts of the Detroit Sound Conservancy. http://detroitsound.org/unitedsound/

Great soul album!

Specially "I'm Gonna Keep On Loving You" is such a gem of a song.
