Whatcha See Is Whatcha Get is the debut studio album by American R&B group The Dramatics, released in 1971 via Volt Records and Stax Records.
"In the Rain" was the most successful single from the album, peaking at #5 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1972.
Reviewing in Christgau's Record Guide: Rock Albums of the Seventies (1981), Village Voice critic Robert Christgau wrote of the album: "Sounds like better Motown than recently and greasier Motown than ever, and it figures—this Tempts-styled Detroit quintet, with Ron Banks in the David Ruffin role, play for the Memphis Grease Kings.
'Get Up and Get Down' and 'Watcha See Is Whatcha Get' resound with uptempo bottom, and while I find the big dramatic number, 'In the Rain,' a little too big and too dramatic, I do prefer Don Davis's sound effects to Norman Whitfield's.
"[4] Q Magazine described the album as "consistently impressive [with] 'Hot Pants In The Summertime' carrying a peculiar angst-ridden intensity".
