One of my all-time favorite songs to play out and listen to is The O’Jays’ 1975 classic “I Love Music”. From the original to the Dimitri from Paris extended edit, the song is a true classic. That’s why I became extremely excited when I found a Vince Montana Jr.’s 1978 LP I Love Music, which features a female vocal cover version of the Kenneth Gamble & Leon Huff written original. I wouldn’t go as far as to say that Montana’s version is as moving as The O’Jays rendition, however the female vocals definitely put a little bit of a different spin on the track. Overall, Montana stay’s with the basic feel of the original while adding a little of his “Salsoul” signature production, in order to create a solid alternative.
