It was issued on Motown’s Tamla label in 1974 and presents mostly songs composed by Robinson himself along with Marv Tarplin, another ex-Miracle, who after leaving the group joined Robinson in California. Marv didn’t only ‘assist,’ he wrote, played guitar, toured, etc., and we don’t know his mind as to why he actually moved. Hits from the album include “I Am I Am,” which hit #6 R\u0026amp;B, “Virgin Man” (#12), and “It’s Her Turn To Live,” a tribute to mothers co-written by Tarplin that was a top 30 R\u0026amp;B hit.
