Flying High On Your Love

Very smart clean vinyl with a good strong cover.

Flying High On Your Love is an album by the Memphis, Tennessee-based R&B group The Bar-Kays.

Released on Mercury Records in the Fall of 1977, this album would chart at number seven on the Billboard Soul Album charts. It was also the first album by the band to be certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America for sales of over 500,000 copies in the United States. Song for song, it is considered by many fans to be the Bar-Kays' best album overall. Aside from the two hit singles, "Let's Have Some Fun" and "Attitudes", the track "You Can't Run Away" was also a hit that received much radio play. The album opener "Shut the Funk Up", and its closing title track "Flying High on Your Love" were equally popular. The album's success, along with their previous album, and acclaimed concert performances on tour dates with Parliament-Funkadelic, established the Bar-Kays as one of the key bands of the funk genre in the late 1970s.
