Description

Womack returned to American in 1969 to cut My Prescription, also produced by Moman, at a time that the venue was becoming exceptionally hot with visits from the likes of Elvis, Dusty Springfield, Neil Diamond and others. Womacks sophomore album may however well be one of the most demonstrative showcases of studio and session crew, incandescent on a finely-honed program of classy and soulful performances, with the singer in full control. Tracks like How I Miss You Baby, Arkansas State Prison and I Cant Take It Like A Man stand as some of Womacks greatest moments, and taken as a whole, My Prescription stands not only the mans first truly great solo album, but also a timeless slice of sophisticated southern soul-making.
