I was intrigued when I first heard about this album as I had understood that the original recordings were long deleted and unavailable.
Then I spotted mention of it on a couple of websites but with observations that the disc (on an obscure Far East label)was considered to be an unauthorised issue and of doubtful quality - in other words the purists wouldn't touch it with the proverbial bargepole.
However, I was then amazed to find that Amazon were offering it (unilaterally it would appear) from stock.
Although a little pricey by current "oldies re-issue" standards I took the plunge and ordered.
Said cd arrived promptly, has full artwork/track listings etc, credits the original production dates, and contains all their best known material.
The recordings ARE the original hit versions and the sound quality is absolutely magnificent. If this disc is unofficial they must have had access to the original masters because I can't find fault with it.
A highly recommended slice of nostalgia from a great band.
In closing I've got to say that this isn't the first occasion when I've had to look to unlikely parts of the world for re-issues of pop classics - domestic labels please note!

The CD 'Cupid's Inspiration - Yesterday Has Gone' was something I bought on impulse, happened across on Amazon purely by chance. Although I remembered their two 1968 hits 'Yesterday Has Gone' and 'My World' I had no idea what else this long forgotten band had done, and was amazed at how good the songs on this CD are, and how well they stand up today - not at all dated. It seems as if Cupid's Inspiration were ahead of their time, and certainly deserve to be much better known. This is a really great CD, and one that I never tire of hearing. It's a shame their stuff isn't played on the radio, or that this CD isn't available in the shops - but who said life is supposed to be fair?!!. It is a real collectors' item, and one definitely worth buying.

I'm suprised that cupids were not more successful probally due to just one album . The music is very inivotive & stands the test of time, title track everyone loves . Great voice , where are they now ? { well i know were they are the lead singer is my father in-law ] so buy it he deserves the recognition & he's a good bloke.

Amazing music
Im positive surprised of this CD. I only knew Cupid's Inspiration's two hit-singles, but there are more great songs by the band on this CD.

In my college days of the late 60's I like my fellow students used to steer clear of buying records by pop groups/ bands that use to clutter up the charts. Read more

Cupids Inspiration were a very unique group from the late 60s its just a pity they didn't make more albums, but I am very pleased with this CD.
