The group seems to perfectly grasp what made The Charmels' recording so special, and its members amp up those qualities: the heft of the rhythm section, the delicacy of the vocals. Even then, one song stayed in the vault: a cover of The Charmels' "As Long as I've Got You" which rivals, and even threatens to exceed, the original. In 1972, The Emotions' members were recording what was supposed to be their third album - Songs of Innocence/Experience - but for reasons still not fully explained, Stax chose not to release most of it until years later, on the Sunshine album.
