What'd I Say/If I Die/The Seed/I Just Want To Celebrate/Someone To Love/Any Man Can Be A Fool/The Road/ Under God's Light
The soul-rock band Rare Earth were the only successful white act to be signed to Motown records, and the specially created label for this category was named after them. One World would turn out to be their last major chart success. (US:28)
“For me, this is their best studio recording. Funky hard rock with some very good guitar and catchy tunes make for a very good LP.”
“Some excellent stuff here the best of which is the last track Under God's Light, the second half of which suddenly kicks into gear and ends up a fantastic, joyously upbeat, party down, hippy soul/rock groove to the fadeout.”
“It is probably their most consistently good album, with soul influenced funky hard rock, featuring their trademark vocal harmonies, really solid guitar with some use of wah-wah, and great material, a combination that's hard to beat.”
“This was the most consistent and rocking album by Rare Earth. Every song drives home and includes great vocals with superb musicianship for this style of rock/soul music. The guitars are electric and turned up with that great Grand Funk styled fuzz on them. The lyrics are heartfelt and true. An uplifting album full of high energy music that is bound to get your foot tapping.”
“You will not find a better album released around the time of this album and the music stands the test of time.”
“One World is without a doubt one of the greatest, most soulful albums ever produced by Motown. This will reach the souls of music lovers in every generation.”
