Unmistakably Lou brings together Philadelphia soul and jazz-influenced songs from American R&B singer Lou Rawls. Released in 1977 on Philadelphia International Records, it was his second album for the label and earned him the 1978 Grammy Award for Best Male R&B Vocal Performance.

Highlights include the Gamble and Huff-penned “See You When I Git There,” alongside “Spring Again” and “Early Morning Love.” The album’s blend of soulful songs and jazz touches makes it an appealing introduction to Rawls’s Philadelphia International era.
