Sylvester - Can't Forget the Love

1981 Too Hot to Sleep Released in 1999 Compilation.Backing Vocals - Jeanie Tracy , Maurice Long , Sylvester. 81 (Fantasy-honey) Syl does not appear on the cover of this album which features this big cactus in front of a house at night. The reason for this is probably because musically this is a completely different Sylvester. For the most part he doesn't sing in his typical falsetto style... instead he sings in his baritone manly voice.The songs are pure R&B with heavy Jazz influence. It sounds like George Benson a lot. The Two Tons o Fun no longer appear . Instead Jeanie Tracy takes the spotlight and sings along with Sylvester. Drums - Harvey Hughes
Piano [Acoustic], Guitar, Arranged By [Rhythm Arrangement] - Tip Wirrick*
Synthesizer - Louis Biancaniello
Words By, Music By - James "Tip" Wirrick*

Didn't know who he was until I saw his story on UNSUNG.Heard this song one time and I still have it in my head! Beautiful Song!!!

SYLVESTER WAS AN AMAZING SINGER AND IM SURE A NICE PERSON. I WISH HE WASN'T A HOMOSEXUAL B/C GOD HAD SO MUCH MORE FOR HIM THEN THAT SINFUL LIFESTYLE. ITS SAD THAT HE WAS BLINDED THINKING THAT HE WAS A WOMAN. BEING GAY IS NOT RIGHT. BUT HE HAD A POWERFUL VOICE!!!!

I think of my brother William (Bopeet) when I hear this song. Love you much.

New subbie thx for post so much with tears rolling down my face

Man I've been tryin to find this song. I never knew sylvester until watching tvones unsung. Yay tvone. His story broke my heart although he lived his life to the fullest. This song breaks my heart. It reminds me of my mom. Rip to both of u.

I love this song. Very beautiful. Not much, but it is somewhat sad. I think the saddest thing for me is while hearing this song, I think of how he died. It is sad. But his memorty lives on. I love him and, as a "black" man, I am proud that he was out the closet while many of us today are still in.

@MrFoster55 I sang with your brother too, and what a beautiful voice he had. In fact, his voice was more natural than Sylvester's voice, and could outsing Luther Vandross on any day. I miss him terribly. RIP "Mo" . . .
