Bobby Taylor also recorded one album as a solo artist, titled Taylor Made Soul, and was shifted to Motown's V.I.P. label where his singles failed to sell well. By 1971, Taylor had departed Motown because of a financial dispute, recording sporadically into the mid-1970s. Taylor later successfully sued Motown for a substantial amount.
