"Twenty-one rare and unreleased sweet funk and soul tracks from 1969-1977, collected by the teams behind Now-Again and Truth & Soul. Presented as an 80-page book filled with rare photos and each band's story. CD comes in its own sleeve within. We at Now-Again unearthed so much information about the bands that recorded the definitive disco and modern soul contained in our Soul Cal anthology that we decided we had no choice but to release an album and a book at the same time. Well, following that line, the music contained on Loving On the Flipside is too damn good to be anonymously relaunched, decades after musical visionaries blended the best of heavy funk and sweet soul into a unified whole. And simply telling the stories of these vocalists and bands without allowing their lovelorn pleas to be heard again wasn't an option. Thus, Loving On the Flipside again offers the enthused a chance to listen to, read about and reflect on another great burst of black American creativity: the creation of the sublime genre we like to call 'sweet funk.'"
