Thank you Gentleman, Could you do a segment on "Still Waters", that would be Fantastic. Big Motown fan here, The Jean Terrell Supremes were so good. Thank you again.
To answer a question in the clip, the song was written by Kathy Wakefield & Leonard Caston. Frank didn't write a lot of the material he produced, but from what I've read, he sought out younger unknown writers and used their material for many Supremes songs.
It's too bad Frank Wilson left Motown, and therefore, The Supremes, because he did amazing work with the group. "Nathan Jones" was and still is a phenomenal track. Guys, thanks for sharing this background story.
I love Nathan Jones, I think its a great song, I was 9 years old when it was out, at the time I really did,nt pay attention to the Supremes, but I remember the song. Was to much into The Partridge Family at the time. LOL Now I know who Mary Wilson, Cindy + Jean are to well!! LOL Hope there is of more of this stuff to come.
WOW! This info is fantastic! I would have given a limb to have been at any of the Jean sessions...

You two should do a video on the Still Waters LP, that would be something.

I don't know Cch,
He's been doing Gospel for quite a while, and considering his talent, it wouldn't surprise me.

Mickey,
I believe we may have discussed it somewhat in one of the other videos.

Didn't Frank Wilson win a grammy recently for a gospel song?
