Music legend Barry White released his first solo album with 20th Century Records in 1973. His string of hugely successful singles and albums established him as music’s leading pioneer of orchestral soul, a genre that became a staple in the 1970s and beyond. Backing his work throughout his seven years with the label was Love Unlimited Orchestra, a 40-piece ensemble conducted by White himself. Their biggest single, 1973’s “Love’s Theme,” went to No. 1 in the U.S. and No. 10 in the U.K. White also produced releases for the label by the female vocal trio, Love Unlimited, whose 1975 single “I Belong To You” hit No. 1 on Billboard’s R&B singles chart.

Mercury/UMe offers new vinyl LP reissues of three of Love Unlimited Orchestra’s albums (Rhapsody In White, White Gold and My Sweet Summer Suite), plus two albums by Love Unlimited (From A Girl’s Point Of View We Give To You… Love Unlimited and In Heat). The five vinyl LPs were cut at Abbey Road Studios and pressed on high quality 180-gram vinyl to guarantee optimal audio quality. All of the albums are presented with their original sleeve and label art. Mercury/UMe’s Barry White / 20th Century Records reissue program was launched in 2018 with box set releases of White’s remastered solo albums and singles from his tenure with the label. 15 years since his untimely death in 2003 at the age of 58, the global campaign honors Barry White’s legendary career by restoring these classic albums and presenting them together.

From A Girl’s Point Of View We Give To You… Love Unlimited is the debut studio album of American soul vocal trio Love Unlimited, released in 1972 on UNI Records. Produced by Barry White, for whom the trio served as a backing group at the time, the album was arranged by White and conductor Gene Page. The album delivered the hit single “Walkin’ In The Rain With The One I Love,” which reached No. 14 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart and No. 6 on Billboard’s Soul Singles chart.
