The album reached number ten in 1973 on the US R&B albums chart on the strength of the million-seller single, \"Why Can't We Live Together.\"\n\nThis song is notable for being recorded in mono; its sparse, stripped-down production, features a Lowrey organ, bossa nova-style percussion from an early rhythm machine, and Thomas's passionate, soulful vocal. Thomas recorded a demo at Dukoff Recording Studios in North Miami, Florida, with Bill Borkan acting as sound engineer. The single version got more airplay because the longer instrumental coda was considered by many radio stations to be closer to jazz. TK Records staff producer Steve Alaimo listened to the demo of the song and was going to re-cut it with a full band, but then decided the song was already finished the way it was. https://bit.ly/3dRNmib", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3577522, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3577522/?format=api", "airdate": "2025-11-13T04:51:07-08:00", "show": 65095, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/65095/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "song": "I Don’t Care Anymore", "track_id": null, "recording_id": "675d21d4-1992-42f4-ad98-e25d6128d476", "artist": "Doris Duke", "artist_ids": [ "f7d9e308-ffa0-4f72-bc69-8f448c1265c1" ], "album": "I’m a Loser", "release_id": null, "release_group_id": "2705dc4b-3a97-3e1f-a469-c1ae3f02c48a", "labels": [ "P‐VINE RECORDS" ], "label_ids": [ "f349f4ac-7fda-4d25-93a9-f148f820e143" ], "release_date": "1970-01-01", "rotation_status": null, "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "Written and produced by Jerry 'Swamp Dogg' Williams Jr.", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3577521, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3577521/?format=api", "airdate": "2025-11-13T04:46:52-08:00", "show": 65095, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/65095/?format=api", "image_uri": "https://coverartarchive.org/release/e10814fe-df1f-4a5a-a2f0-732d91531408/42693502160-500.jpg", "thumbnail_uri": "https://coverartarchive.org/release/e10814fe-df1f-4a5a-a2f0-732d91531408/42693502160-250.jpg", "song": "Pour Me", "track_id": null, "recording_id": "d9e9688d-a6fe-426b-834b-12c603d9bbbc", "artist": "Black Ends", "artist_ids": [ "ee88a13a-f9fd-45f0-a7dd-3551566c4976" ], "album": "Psychotic Spew", "release_id": null, "release_group_id": "2399cefe-5436-430c-8e88-c550de9bb079", "labels": [ "Youth Riot" ], "label_ids": [ "e76d5482-a531-4336-8417-89ee1240d438" ], "release_date": "2024-10-11", "rotation_status": null, "is_local": true, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "Black Ends played Live on KEXP last November, showcasing songs off their debut album, Psychotic Spew! \n\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5e5Y6huk8U&t=912s\n\nhttps://blackends.bandcamp.com/", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3577520, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3577520/?format=api", "airdate": "2025-11-13T04:44:28-08:00", "show": 65095, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/65095/?format=api", "image_uri": "https://coverartarchive.org/release/25e05dc4-51d2-4824-a98b-557862aff1a2/12594384357-500.jpg", "thumbnail_uri": "https://coverartarchive.org/release/25e05dc4-51d2-4824-a98b-557862aff1a2/12594384357-250.jpg", "song": "Slaughter", "track_id": null, "recording_id": "5ff934c3-5d30-4845-8533-14b19eeb9b9c", "artist": "Meshell Ndegeocello", "artist_ids": [ "55a8b485-1cbf-47ee-ae15-d106200fafe8" ], "album": "Devil’s Halo", "release_id": null, "release_group_id": "1e31e528-f5ee-4455-968b-8612219a0a93", "labels": [ "Mercer Street Records" ], "label_ids": [ "9473ab84-76fe-4153-af72-ab252361b70e" ], "release_date": "2009-10-06", "rotation_status": null, "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": null, "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3577519, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3577519/?format=api", "airdate": "2025-11-13T04:39:58-08:00", "show": 65095, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/65095/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "song": "Another Life", "track_id": null, "recording_id": null, "artist": "Alabama Shakes", "artist_ids": [ "40419b33-18e9-4d5a-a674-30b4bb14bac2" ], "album": "Another Life", "release_id": null, "release_group_id": null, "labels": [], "label_ids": [], "release_date": "2025-01-01", "rotation_status": "Heavy", "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "Of the song, Brittany Howard, confides, \"When I wrote 'Another Life,' I was thinking about all the lives we carry.

It’s about letting them come together, letting them harmonize, and realizing that goodbye isn’t really goodbye. It’s more like I’ll see you later. A collective story that never stops unfolding.
