Captain & Tennille recorded a Spanish version, entitled "Como Yo Quiero Sentirte" which was released as a single in 1975.
In September 1973, Toni and Daryl were performing at The Smokehouse Restaurant in Encino, California and two men from a small radio station were in the audience one night.
[citation needed] Daryl and Toni initially pressed a few copies and gave them to several small radio stations in the Los Angeles area.
[citation needed] Three Los Angeles DJs Wink Martindale and Gary Owens of KMPC and Johnny Hayes of KRLA began talking about the song and promoting it out of merit.
[citation needed] Cash Box said that "this is the single that impressed the label enough to give the duo the shot that produced Love Will Keep Us Together".
