Liner Notes THESE ARE THE MOMENTS, PASSING IN TIME-THE MOST PROLIFIC OF THE GROUPS LAYING CLAIM TO THE LATE SIXTIES AS THEIR COMING-OUT PERIOD. THE MUSIC, FITTINGLY, IS A PRODUCT OF THE FOG-SHROUDED COASTAL NORTHEAST, WHICH GAVE US WHAT IS NOW THE "MEMORY BALLADS" OF THE ROCK 'N' ROLL ERA. INDEED, IT IS A REVIVAL OF THE "NEW JERSEY SOUND." THE MOMENTS ARE PILLARS IN THE "HOUSE" OF JOE AND SYLVIA ROBINSON, ALL PLATINUM RECORDS, ENGLEWOOD, N.J. ON THE RARE DAYS WHEN THEY ARE NOT PERFORMING ON THE ROAD, THEY CAN BE FOUND AT ALL PLATINUM'S SOJIL SOUND STUDIOS, CONSTANTLY WORKING ON THEIR ALREADY RAZOR-SHARP ROUTINES, WRITING AND REVIEWING NEW MATERIAL, AND WORKING OUT WITH HIT-MAKING WILLIE FEASTER AND THE MIGHTY MAGNIFICENTS ("FUNKY 8 CORNERS"), WHO DO ALL THE RHYTHM AND HORNS IN THIS ALBUM. THE MOMENTS, INDIVIDUALLY, ARE BILLY BROWN, OF ATLANTA, GA., WHO DOES MOST OF THE LEAD WORK, AL GOODMAN, OF JACKSON, MISS., AND JOHN MORGAN, OF WASHINGTON, D.C. AL IS FEATURED ON THIS DISC DOING THE OUTSTANDING LEAD ON "POCKETFUL OF HEARTBREAK" AND "YOU MAKE ME FEEL GOOD." JOHN DOES A GROOVING LEAD JOB ON "UNDERSTANDING." SO HERE THEY ARE, BILLY, AL, AND JOHN, TOGETHER MAKING UP THE MOMENTS. THIS IS DEFINITELY THEIR TIME ... AND THIS IS YOUR TIME TO ENJOY THEM.
