Clarence Carter's first major-hit album remains a
must-own record, holding up extraordinarily well
across four decades. Carter's singing possesses an
immediacy and emotional impact that is as
striking today as it was in 1970, and displays a
vast range as well. The title track is the
best-known song here, though 'It's All in Your
Mind' was also a hit later in the year, and 'I
Can't Leave Your Love Alone' and 'Your Love Lifted
Me' could easily have joined it and topped the
pop charts as well. Carter even provides a bracing
authentic gospel approach to the then-new Beatles
song 'Let It Be', taking the song back to the
roots whence Paul McCartney drew his inspiration.
He also assumes a more pop-oriented persona on
'Till I Can't Take It Anymore', on which Carter
starts to sound a bit like Elvis Presley, while on
'It's All in Your Mind' he seems to invoke the
ghost of Sam Cooke. On his own 'C.C. Blues',
Carter's bluesiest persona emerges, his crunchy
guitar playing off beautifully against a soaring
horn section and Clayton Ivey's piano, and he
returns to a soul sound for the finale, the
soaring 'Getting the Bills (But No Merchandise)'.
