The title cut - i believe released ahead of the album as a single a year earlier, in 1972 - is absolutely gorgeous, and, to these ears at least, is the definitive missing link between the Stax sound and the Stones' "Fool to Cry".
An education. Thank you.
Wow, I am totally disillusioned! I thought that Graham Central Station had made up this ditty that they released in 1974:

I'm still learning something new everyday! Thanks for schooling me!
funny, ive dug up the 45 today knowing nothing about it. But, hey, on Stax. and, listening, i was thinkin how southern soul it was, and very good.
Hi. I love the song "I've Been Lonely for so Long". I was introduced to it via Mick jagger's wonderful rendition over 10 years ago. At the time, I was working at The Sound of Birmingham recording studios. I was looking around the studio one day in my spare time and saw a framed 45 record on the wall - it was Frederick's! Terribly excited, I asked the owner about it and he said Mr. Knight had cut the record there years ago. WOW! I read on the internet that Mr Knight lived in Bessemer, AL in the 70's. Does anyone know if he is still alive? I sure would like to meet him.
