If you're not familiar with this artist/Title, here's some additional information: "Prior to gaining recognition as a co-writer of the Jackson 5's "I'll Be There" and establishing himself as a valuable songwriter, arranger, and producer at Motown, Willie Hutch released singles on Dunhill and Soul City and wrote for the 5th Dimension. He was also signed to RCA as a solo artist, and Soul Portrait was his debut album, the first of two sets he recorded for the label. Hutch compared his approach here to that of Otis Redding; though there are definite parallels, such as its convincing Southern tint, Hutch's vocals, rough-hewn as they are, tend to roam within the range of sweet and tender to deeply impassioned and emphatic, yet without ever reaching Redding's belting levels à la "Try a Little Tenderness" or "Respect." Backed by an uncredited roster of studio musicians that often involves a rich combination of horns, strings, and female background vocalists — best heard together on the ecstatically reeling "Your Love Keeps Liftin' Me Higher," an original that indicates where Hutch would take his sound on The Mack — Soul Portrait is as complete as any other soul album released in 1969, consistent without obvious high or glaring low points. That lack of a signature song or two likely hindered its progress. Regardless, it deserved to make more of an impact".
The Vinyl is Near Mint (9-9.5 of 10) in condition. With Original RCA Inner Sleeve. The shrink is intact and in excellent condition. The cover is very nice. The only issues to report are some minor edge wear and some very slight corner rounding - there is a very slight delete clip of the lower right corner as well. Nothing serious on this very hard to find 40 year old LP!!.
