LEON HAYWOOD, 74 Died April 5, 2016
Best remembered for his 1975 hit "I Want to Do Something Freaky to You" (#15 Pop, #7 R&B). Joined Sam Cooke's backup group until Cooke's death in 1964. He went solo as Leon Haywood.
A staple in R&B charts 1965-1984 with hits like "Come and Get Yourself Some" (#83 pop, #19 R&B).
Also wrote and produced Carl Carlton's "She's a Bad Mama Jama (#22 Pop, #@ R&B-1981).
Being an account of some things I'm interested in, what I'm doing, and reflections on my past, especially music.
Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.
