A double whammy from Barry White & The Love Unlimited Orchestra. Sublime strings great orchestration and Barry's distinctive voice produced a number of hits. Often viewed as purely romantic these songs have a great funky aesthetic alongside the sophistication. Listeners need to look below the surface to really appreciate how great Barry White was. With Documentaries on Disco currently in vogue let's always remember that Soul music comes in many forms and sophistication is no barrier to real soul.
