People… Hold On (New LP)

People. Hold On, the sophomore breakout album by former Temptations vocalist Eddie Hendricks, was released in May 1972. Woven into it’s community-inspired motif was “”Girl You Need a Change of Mind,”” that, with it’s extended performance and well-placed “”break,”” is considered one of the first modern disco tracks. Edited for radio play, the song hit #13 on the Billboard R&B chart. The album, which also featured the dance classic “”Date With The Rain,”” set the pace for the following Kendricks albums.
