    I think three unreleased cuts could have been A-side major sellers: We'll Be Satisfied, That'll Be The Day and Last One Out Is Brokenhearted and maybe A Tear From A Woman's Eye

    I love "You'll Lose a Precious Love," 1966 and "What Love Has Joined Together," Eddie, Eddie, Eddie that voice, the lyrics and harmony.

    Forever In My Heart and That'll Be The Day for me.

    I would have reserved We'll Be Satisfied for Marvin & Tammi with them re-recording it in Detroit with a more effective backing track.

    Good question arr&bee. My picks are:
    "Just One Last Look"
    "That'll Be The Day"
    "I Couldn't Think Of A Thing At All"
    "Message From A Black Man"
    "Sorry Is A Sorry Word"
    "We'll Be Satisfied"
    "Last One Out Is Brokenhearted"
    "Just Another Lonely Night"
    "Isn't The Night Fantastic"
    "Memories"

    I think "Just To Keep You In My Life" from 1984 would have been a good single... it has that lovely Earth, Wind & Fire groove to it
