Timmy Thomas is a keyboardist, R&amp;B singer, songwriter and producer who hails from Evansville, Indiana. As a keyboardist Thomas came to prominence as an accompanist with Jazz legends Donald Byrd and Cannonball Adderley in the early 60's before joining the group Phillip and The Faithfuls, releasing several singles on the Goldwax record label in 1964, before settling in Memphis as a session musician while still releasing solo sides for Goldwax with modest success. After a brief stint on the Climax label in 1970 Thomas found a new home on Glades Records, a subsidiary of T.K. Records, in Miami in 1972. 'Why Can't We Live Together ' was the first of four albums Thomas recorded on Glades Records. 'Why Can't We Live Together' has a very stripped down production, a sound echoed throughout the album, with Thomas's soulful organ played in an improvisational style over the rhythm sections, giving room for his impassioned vocals. Other notable cuts on the album are the standard 'The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face' and a cover of The Chi-lites 'The Coldest Days Of My Life.' This reissue is completely remastered and repackaged complete with extensive liner notes and extended bonus content and a brand new interview with Timmy Thomas.
