After three singles of cover songs on smaller labels, The Human Beinz signed with Capitol Records, who misspelled the group's name on their contract, leaving out the "g" (Beingz originally).[2] They went into the recording studio in the summer of 1967 to record their debut album. The sessions started with an attempt to record "You Don't Love Me", a Willie Cobbs song that Sonny and Cher had recently covered. When that didn't work out, they recorded "Nobody but Me" from The Isley Brothers. They replaced the dances "The Jerk" and "The Twist" with The Boogaloo and The Shingaling. Several other covers and some original material written by their producer/songwriter Lex de Azevedo filled out the album. The resulting album was not as successful as the single "Nobody but Me", which reached number 8 on the Billboard Hot 100. The second single "Turn on Your Love Light" reached number 80. The album itself charted as high as number 65 on the Billboard 200, and was on the charts for ten weeks.[3]
