专辑介绍
by John Bush
After nearly a decade of plugging away in the Chicago soul scene, the Chi-Lites finally reached the charts in 1969 with the effervescent Top Ten R&B hit &Give It Away.& Hot on its heels followed this debut LP, a strong one thanks to the composing/performing/producing dynamo Eugene Record as well as the steady hand of producer Carl Davis. &24 Hours of Sadness& is a copycat of their first hit, but just as enjoyable a performance and just as sparkling a production, while &Let Me Be the Man My Daddy Was& is a sweet ballad that avoids the expected melodramatic pitfalls. The group's runthrough of several Motown nuggets (&My Whole World Ended,& &I Heard It Through the Grapevine,& &I'm Gonna Make You Love Me&) is also surprisingly successful, with Record's crystal falsetto on the former making for a nice translation of David Ruffin's original. The quartet got a little groovy for &That's My Baby for You,& and though a few of the other album tracks are distinctly inferior, the Chi-Lites' first full-length was a bright spot for Chicago soul.
