Burn Rubber (Why You Wanna Hurt Me) / Yearning for Your Love

Originally released on Mercury 76091. Right after George Clinton's bands (Funkadelic/Parliament), the Gap Band was one of the greatest of the 1970's-80's funk bands. These guys could really rock, and this was their first in a string of #1 RnB hits. This is a new copy of the Mercury "Timepieces" reissue, in its factory sleeve. It shows the song title as "Burn Rubber On Me."
