They also cut 'Ain't that love enough' on a superb female singer, Ty Karim, for the same label, and using the same backing track.
Another Detroit link to the same writers is via Darrel Banks' 'Somebody, somewhere needs you'.
They also recorded Ike & Tina Turner on this track, but with a different backing track, but then used the same backing track as Ike & Tina on a song called 'Lighten up baby' by both Larry Laster and Ty Karim. Now that's economy!!!
