This is the one of the nicest copies I've yet had in the store of this classic 1966 Motown-style Soul hit, penned by Edwin Starr, on the small Detroit label Impact (which Motown would later acquire). Probably recorded with Motown's session musicians. Note: This beautiful copy has pristine Mint labels, and the vinyl looks untouched. The audio grades close to Mint but misses because of a light touch of noise in one channel near the beginning.
