Pressed in 1972 and long coveted by crate-diggers, 'Think Of The Children' by Satisfaction Unlimited is a stunning testament to Detroit's soul legacy. This album captures the transitional pulse of early-'70s R&B: lush vocal harmonies glide over tight, propulsive grooves, while the lyrics offer both social commentary and heartfelt uplift. Satisfaction Unlimited, a group with roots in The Falcons, injects every track with earnest conviction and a clarity of purpose that's rare even among their celebrated Motown contemporaries. Tracks like the title cut balance irresistible hooks with a plea for compassion and hope, making the record both a dancefloor delight and a thoughtful listen. The musicianship—especially in the rhythm section and the soaring brass arrangements—rewards attentive listeners, revealing new details on every spin. For collectors or anyone with a passion for vintage soul, this album stands as a snapshot of a fertile musical moment: earnest, innovative, and emotionally resonant. Its rarity on vinyl only adds to the allure. If you value music that both moves your feet and stirs your conscience, 'Think Of The Children' is a record worth cherishing.
