Ma (Rare Earth album)

Ma is the sixth studio album by rock band Rare Earth, released in April 1973. It marks another change because none of the tracks were composed or written by the band. All composing and producing was done by the famous producer Norman Whitfield with a little help from Barrett Strong, a longtime collaborator of Whitfield.
