7” – Limited Edition Black Vinyl (Mono produced).

A modern, mid-tempo masterpiece whose lush arrangement and laser-sharp groove provide the perfect foundation for Jalens profoundly soulful vocals. The track exudes charm and manifests positivity in a way rarely captured on todays soul scene.

On the flip is the moody, previously unreleased beat-ballad, What is Left to Do, whose gorgeous strings, plaintive, call and response chorus and tasteful delay create the kind of subdued psychedelic that was coming out of Motown in the early 70s. But contrary to the trends of that era, both sides of this disc are presented in glorious mono.

Come Around And Love Me is the title track from Jalens smash debut album
