Rarearth (album)
Rarearth is the tenth studio album by American rock band Rare Earth. It was released on October 1, 1977[1] by Prodigal Records, a Motown subsidiary label. The record, although rock, was heavily inspired by funk and soul music. It was considered a unique rock album but never gained much success or notability for it.[2] Graham Betts wrote "the resulting Rare Earth album was hardly a shattering success, at least charting (albeit at #187) proved that they still had an audience" in his book titled Motown Encyclopedia.[3]
