Critical reception

The title track marked the conclusion of a 40s standards show, as album was filled with hit singles when "I'm On My Way," was released, along with the songs "If There Were Time," "You Need a Woman Tonight," and "You Never Done It Like That." LP was released on A&M records. Most of the songs were regarded "jazz standards," within funk classics such as "Good Enough." "You Never Done it Like That" was originally recorded by Sedaka on his album A Song, then covered by the duo and released as a single, within "D Keyboard Blues" and "Dixie Hummingbird." The album has several hits in favor of the following Make Your Move LP in 1979. The song "Dream

and others, in which the entire album was filled with very classic jazz songs by jazz/swing singers, and includes several hit singles, unlike other Captain & Tennille albums which only spawn a few, and this one makes up their string of success.

Flavor had a different feel to the duo's other albums, with more of that jazz feel as 1930s and 40s standards, like "Dream (When You're Feeling Blue)," "You Never Done It Like That" and "You Need a Woman Tonight." Some songs were covers of these standards (including the title track and You Never Done It Like That,) as regular type of the originals, but different music, the following Make Your Move was a return to the R&B era, the songs here sound more jazzy classic than others mentioned part of Captain & Tennille's long career. "Love Me Like a Baby" was sung by Toni Tennille with the piano alone (no other instruments but piano). This album has a more effect than others by the married duo and Tennille chose this flavor. Released in 1978 on A&M records, includes the hit singles "You Never Done it Like That" and "You Need a Woman Tonight." The album was recorded throughout their own studio (Captain & Tennille's private studio).
