Riding high off of a Grammy nod as Producer of the Year for his work on the Spinners 1973 eponymous album, Philly soul mastermind Thom Bell infused their next collection Mighty Love (1974) with the similar mix of lushly scored slow jams and stylish mid-tempo R&B entries.
Although the group had been around since the mid-'50s, by the time the quintet began their stint on Atlantic Records the lineup featured Henry Fambrough (baritone vocal), Billy Henderson (tenor vocal), Pervis Jackson (bass vocal), Bobbie Smith (tenor vocal) and the then most recent addition in 1971 Philippe Wynne (tenor vocal).

 The Spinners
I've avoided the later non-Bell albums but they did have two hits in that period, both covers: 1979's "Working My Way Back To You/Forgive Me Girl" and Sam Cooke's "Cupid" the following year.
G.C. Cameron, lead vocals; Henry Fambrough, Billy Henderson, Pervis Jackson, Bobbie Smith, vocals.
I suspect this consists of failed single sides, like most Motown debut albums; "That's What Girls Are Made For" and "Truly Yours" were the least unsuccessful.

I've always liked "I Don't Want to Lose You" and Henry Fambrough is sensational on the last cut, "Just as Long as We Have Love".
An interesting note on that tune, Dionne Warwick teams up with Henry on a great tune, which should've been a hit, just like her previous duet with the Spinners on "Then Came You" from the "New and Improved" album.
This is a real classic and any fan of soul music should own it.
