''Love Will Keep Us Together'' was the first release by the duo Captain & Tennille. It was released in 1975 by A&M Records in both stereo (SP-4552) and CD-4 quadraphonic (QU-54552) versions. The album would peak at No. 2 on the ''Billboard'' 200 album chart, while the title song, ''Love Will Keep Us Together'', won the Grammy Award for Record Of The Year and was nominated for Song Of The Year. The cover of the album features a photo of Toni Tennille and Daryl Dragon sitting with two of their bulldogs. ==Songs== The title song from the album, "Love Will Keep Us Together", was written by Neil Sedaka and Howard Greenfield, first appearing on Sedaka's 1973 LP ''The Tra-La Days Are Over''. The Captain & Tennille cover (A&M 1672-S b/w "Gentle Stranger") would reach No. 1 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 for the week ending June 21, 1975. It spent four weeks at number one and was ranked by ''Billboard'' as the number one single of the year, and also spent one week at number one on the Adult Contemporary chart. "The Way I Want To Touch You" (A&M 1725 b/w "Broddy Bounce") became another million-seller, reaching #4 on the Hot 100 and topping the AC chart for two weeks. Both tracks were also top 40 hits in the U.K. although they did not replicate their Stateside success there. Dragon and Tennille first met in 1971 while Dragon was keyboardist for The Beach Boys, whom Tennille would soon join as an additional keyboardist. The album includes three songs written or co-written by (and for) The Beach Boys: "Cuddle Up", which was co-written by Daryl Dragon in 1972; "God Only Knows", co-written by Brian Wilson and "Disney Girls", written by Bruce Johnston. The album includes the first album release of the song "I Write the Songs", also written by Beach Boy Bruce Johnston. Later in 1975, Barry Manilow released a version of the song which became a No. 1 Billboard Hot 100 hit. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Love Will Keep Us Together (album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
