I'll Always Love You/ Love Song

You can't do wrong with either side of this terrific single, which somehow escaped notice at Pop and Black/RnB radio when released in 1967, but I took a quick fondness to the B side ("Love Song"), which as I suspected is not available from the iTunes store or other online services. Have a listen to the mp3 snippet, and I hope it grabs you like it did me! (Never neglect to listen to a single's B side. Even though it's called a "single," nearly all of them (except for many promos) have at least 2 songs on them. Very often, the B side proves the test of time better than the A side, or it turns out to be deserving of as much attention as the A side at the least.) Note: This copy comes in a vintage Brunswick Records factory sleeve. The Mintish labels have a small "K" inked on them. The audio sounds pristine Mint. (This scan is a representative image from our archives; this copy does not have a drillhole.)
