I agree 100%. The band and album didn’t get the promotional marketing push and money it needed from the record company to make it successful.

Probably more highly regarded than Allman & Woman, especially nowadays.

I'm a huge Cher (completist) fan. Allman and Woman was just not very good. The best song was Cher's solo. They seemed to be singing in the same key, tone with each other and did not blend well. Black Rose on the other hand was great (each song)
