The king of one-man soul's crowning achievement has finally been remastered. Sounds like a futuristic blast from the past, even today!

"Why Can't We Live Together was the first of four albums Thomas recorded on Glades Records, and with the title track released as the first single in late 1972, Thomas had his first and biggest hit with ‘Why Can’t We Live Together,’ which peaked at #1 R&B and #3 Pop in the U.S., and #12 in the U.K. [...] [The title track] has a very stripped-down production, a sound echoed throughout the album, with Thomas’s soulful organ played in an improvisational style over the rhythm section, giving room for his impassioned vocals. [...] BBR is very proud to bring you Why Can't We Be Together, completely remastered and repackaged with extensive liner notes, extended bonus content, and a brand new interview with Timmy Thomas." - Big Break Recordings
