Why Can't We Live Together?

Timmy Thomas  had little  solo  success until he moved to Glades Records in  Miami, Florida, and in late  1972  released "Why Can't We Live Together?". This was a memorable and heartfelt message song distinguished by its soulful  organ, stripped-down production with a simple  drum machine , and impassioned vocals. The record topped the  Billboard   R&B  charts, made the top three in the  Billboard Hot 100, and  Top Ten  in many other countries including the  UK.
