Why Can't I Love Somebody/ Funky Black Man

The A side is a lovely New Orleans-influenced ballad, but the real action here is the Funky Soul B side, which is reminiscent of something Bill Withers might have done. By the way, Jackson made no albums, just a handful of singles. Note: This copy has beautiful, Near Mint labels with a drillhole in the center edge (see scan). The vinyl has some light scuffing and tiny scratches, grading a strong EX in appearance. The A side audio is only EX, reflecting some surface noise here and there. The B side audio is close to Near Mint, but also has a touch of surface noise that keeps it a strong EX.
