Oh yes indeed!! This was a huge hit in the UK and I still have the 7" version. It was my great pleasure to get to know the guy personally many years later.

I've always associated Jim Gilstrap with "Love Talk" -- a great early, mid-tempo dance track which occupied the entirety of Side One of his follow-up "Love Talk" album. I didn't know that Jim was associated with Stevie and Motown. That makes him even more special!

He is one of the nicest people one could ever hope to meet.

Bluebrock, how cool that you got the chance to know Jim! Are you still in touch with him?

Funny, this song had a retro sound back then in 1975!
