Tracks list

Womack is one of the most prolific and influential acts in R&B and rock. With
songs like "I Can Understand It," "Harry Hippie," and "Woman Got to Have It,"
Womack often displayed a depth, candor, and an expert turn of phrase that helped
him outpace his contemporaries. Facts of Life is the follow-up to the 1972
classic Communication. This album is even better. Womack is known for his often
uncomfortably real takes on love, life, and relationships, and Facts of Life
expertly deals with a myriad of subjects. The only released single is his
revamped take of the standard "Nobody Wants You When You're Down and Out." The
song has been done ad infinitum, but Womack put a nasty edge on it that made it
sound like a song he wrote himself. "I'm Through Trying to Prove My Love to You"
is punctuated by his great guitar riffing and plaintive vocal and lyrical gems
like, "See when you take my heart/ I can't let you take my soul." "He'll Be
There When the Sun Goes Down" benefits from more witticisms and a strong string
arrangement from Womack and Rene Hall. Perhaps the most surprising thing about
Facts of Life is that Womack is so adept at taking others' material and making
it his own. "Natural Man," a cover of "You Make Me Feel Like a Natural Woman,"
is the biggest shock here. Where Aretha Franklin's version had her skillfully
shouting from the rooftops, Womack brings tenderness to the lyric and is
believable. Produced by Womack and recorded in Muscle Shoals with its renowned
players, Facts of Life is an album of undeniable craft.
