Continued from first review January 3, 2009 It is of note that Stokes' father, Dr. Rufus Stokes, an inventor listed as an "Energy Pioneer" with the U.S Department of Energy, sang with Sam Cook in his gospel group, was a friend of Nat "King" Cole and whose wife Bessie babysat Natalie Cole. Through Will Hatcher, the management team was introduced to renowned Detroit Tigers Baseball announcer Ernie Harwell, who sent a congratulatory telegram to the first live performance by Beverly and Duane in Detroit subsequent to the release of the album. In an unfortunate oversight that affects Stokes to this day, Hatcher was not mentioned as producer during the club presentation.

Initially, Fee Records of Detroit on Grand River managed this husband and wife duo along with Chapter 8, the vocal group that featured Anita Baker as lead, and The ADC Band. Fee was named after the daughter of the founder Woody Wilson, with the corporate team including Detroit radio legend "Butterball" Junior of WCHB. Secretary was Leslie Goines, sister of urban writer Donald Goines, with promotional expertise provided in part by veteran promo rep Jon Louis Barrow, nephew of boxing great Joe Louis. Jon Barrow was the Atlantic Records rep responsible for the first hits of Aretha Franklin, Cream, Archie Bell and The Drells, among others, and was noted for editing down Iron Butterfly's hit "Inna Gadda Da Vida" from 23 minutes to a more radio friendly 4:44. In 1977, the group was signed by Ariola Capitol EMI Records, with their first album due out in 1978. The first hit with producer Will Hatcher was "Glad I Gotcha, Baby" and was released with an extended length disco version, followed by the beautiful love song "Living In A World and the upbeat "Take A Ride" depending on the part of the country you lived in. The duality of the release was owing to a professional dispute at Fee Records and Beverly and Duane's newly appointed management team BarSto and Associates, consisting of Barrow and Myron D. Stokes, who went on to be an industry correspondent for Newsweek Magazine. Barrow saw to it that Stokes was introduced to the right people in the music industry, inclusive of Atlantic Record's legendary Ahmet Ertegun.
