Includes liner notes by Ron Bowman. Recorded in 1970. Personnel: Johnnie Taylor (vocals); Eddie Hinton, Steve Cropper (guitar); Rudy Robinson, Barry Beckett (keyboards); Roger Hawkins (drums). Liner Note Author: Rob Bowman. Recording information: Muscle Shoals Sound Studios, AL (1970); Stax Recording Studio, Memphis, TN (1970). Photographer: Joel Brodsky. Cut in the middle of Taylor's late-'60s and early-'70s stay at Stax, One Step Beyond qualifies as one of the singer's best LPs. Captured in his Southern soul prime, Taylor lets loose on fine mix of gospel-inspired ballads ("I Don't Want to Lose You"), countrified mid-tempo burners ("Party Life"), and breezy stings-and-horns soul ("Will You Love Me Forever"). And, yes, there are such unforgettable hits as "I Am Somebody" and an amazing reading of the jazz standard "Time After Time." A must-have for all Taylor fans. ~ Stephen Cook
