#nowplaying #TheImpressions’ 1974 gem “Finally Got Myself Together” shines with gospel-funk grooves produced by #EdTownsend. Post-Mayfield, #FredCash leads brilliantly conceived tracks like the #1 R&B title hit, proving their enduring soul power amid ’70s grit. One of their finest late-era albums.
"For Your Love" is a song written and performed by #EdTownsend. It reached #7 on the #USRAndBChart and #13 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1958.
#OnThisDay in 2003, #EdTownsend, American doo-wop singer, songwriter, and producer ("For Your Love"; Marvin Gaye's "Let's Get It On"), died at 73.
