Though Bobby Nunn and Eugene Coplin were still teenagers in 1967 when Nunn's father William decided to start his own label, Mo Do Records, the duo didn't let their age stop them from spending their afternoons writing songs and practicing their harmonies. Their single "You Gave Me Love" was the first to be released on Mo Do, and before the label folded in the early '70s due to financial troubles, Bob & Gene, as they called themselves, had become local Buffalo, NY, celebrities. Looking for better musical opportunities, Bobby Nunn eventually moved to California to pursue his career further, singing with Rick James, releasing his own albums on Motown in the '80s, and working as a songwriter for other artists, while Coplin stayed in Buffalo and became an ordained minister. In 2001, record collector and soul music enthusiast David Griffiths came across a 45 from Bob & Gene, a cover of Marvin Gaye's "If This World Were Mine." Intrigued by what he heard, he contacted William Nunn, who then gave Griffiths all of Bob & Gene's old tapes. Believing there was possibility in the collection, Griffiths encouraged the family to allow him to get them released. Daptone Records, a label that specialized in funk and soul, took interest in what Griffiths presented them, and released the full-length If This World Were Mine... in 2007, shortly after the elder Nunn's death.

Bobby Oroza - This Love Pt. 1 - BC064-45 - Side A

This song was composed by an amazing man from Pasadena named Steve Salazar. He was born with a heart condition and passed away at the young age of 27. Before he died he recorded one incredible album of demos in the mid-70s with a band called Shorty’s Portion. Peanut Butter Wolf found a copy of the album and I loved it so much that he gave it to me (thanks Wolf!). The vinyl had a handwritten note tucked in the sleeve that was addressed to anyone who could help the band with management, a record deal, radio airplay, etc. I’d estimate there were less than 300 copies pressed. That’s my Dad playing pedal steel guitar and Topher Mohr shredding the guitar solo on my version.

Lyrics:
Ahh
It’s a sticky situation
Such a small world after all
Except for the space between us
A gentleman ceremoniously waiting
To the west of the Berlin Wall
Through the great divide
While you slept in my T-shirt on the other side

But I never saw it coming
It was written on your face
And what are we becoming?
Now it’s too late to stay
Got to run
Get away

Oh no
Houston now we have a problem
Brer Rabbit lit the dynamite
And that sucka ‘bout to blow
A chivalrous hand
Mr Magic to the rescue
Fairy godfather all in white
Through the private door
Living happily ever after
Forever more

Ooh we knew that it was reckless to begin
Oh but still we threw our caution to the wind

Lyrics:
Let your hair down
Not a care around
Taste the air now
That extraordinary feeling
It's healing

I'm down on bended knee
Don't close that door on me
Just hold me near
I'll be right here for you
You know it's true

Let your hair down
Not a care around
Taste the air now
That extraordinary feeling
It's healing

I haven't felt this free
Since Mike was on TV
A child at heart
It's still a part of me
It's got to be

Oh god
Can I hold on
Can I tap into that young Andrew inside
Good lord
Can I hold on
To the fabric of this magic carpet ride
