"All This Love" is a single by DeBarge, released on October 17, 1982. The song was released as the third and final single from their second studio album of the same title on the Gordy label. The single would help DeBarge rise to R&B stardom. A cover version of the song was recorded by Patti LaBelle on her 1994 gold album Gems. A video for her version was also filmed.

Overview

History

In 1982, having released one album that did not go anywhere, DeBarge went into recording their follow-up with their own songs, chiefly handled by El DeBarge, who was also the main lead singer and focal point of the group, including the song, "All This Love", in which DeBarge sung in a high tenor and had written it in a year earlier in hopes then-label mate and longtime idol Marvin Gaye would record it.

Gaye had served as El's inspiration for the song, hinted in the group's vocal harmonizing in the final part of the song, which was similar to Gaye's "I Want You" vocal style period. By the following year, Gaye had left the label and DeBarge ended up recording it themselves. Producing this song with Berry Gordy's niece Iris, the single was issued as the third release from All This Love.

The song was featured in a 1983 episode of the US daytime soap opera Days Of Our Lives.

Reception

Much like their first hit, "I Like It", "All This Love" was immediately embraced by the R&B community while the group gained a pop fan base. In the US, The single reached number 5 on the Billboard R&B chart, number 17 on the Billboard Hot 100,[1] and number one on the Adult Contemporary chart,[2] helping its parent album of the same name reach gold status by the summer of 1983.

The song was re-recorded by R&B legend Patti LaBelle on her 1994 album, Gems. LaBelle's version, produced by Teddy Riley, was released as a single and peaked at #42 on the Billboard R&B chart. DeBarge and LaBelle later sung the song together as a duet live in concert.

Among other cover versions, Gwen Guthrie recorded it in 1987, and it appears on the John Blake album Adventures of the Heart. Detroit guitarist Calvin Brooks covered the song in 1990, and LA-based singer/songwriter Bill Cantos recorded a Latin jazz-oriented version in 2000.

Mexican-American percussionist Pete Escovedo, along with saxophonist Gerald Albright did an instrumental version of "All This Love" for Escovedo's album Flying South in 1995, which had considerable air time on smooth jazz radio stations.
