"Never My Love"
(Don Addrisi - Dick Addrisi)
Jim Yester, in the liner notes to the Japanese _From The Original Master
Tapes_ CD (Warner/Pioneer WPCP-3536):
One of the most real, direct, and beautiful love songs of our times,
recently cited by Broadcast Music Incorporated as the third most aired
composition of modern times. This song, and "Cherish", combined to
establish the group as creators of "World Class" love song recordings.
