    That's the late Michael Henderson on vocals. Ashley, I highly recommend you to try "Valentine Love" from his album Solid, released in 1976. Mr. Norman Connors produced real good songs, like "Melancholy Fire" with the great Glenn Jones on vocals, it worth a listen.

    I'd aways thought this was Michael Henderson singing lead, I used to get Norman Connors and Michael Henderson mixed up, until I realized that this is Michael Henderson singing lead on Norman Connors song and oh yeah, get ready because this is a playlist pen clicker.

    I was in college when this came out! And yes! I knew Ms. Hyman personally. She use to get on me about calling her Ma'am. She stated she like the respect but she didn't want to feel old. Salute to Norman, Michael ( RIP) and my all-time favorite singer Ms. Phyllis Hyman ( RIP)

    That whole album is great. Jazz is my second favorite style of music. Norman is a composer, musician, song writer, producer and a classy guy. He’s still making music in 2023. RIP Michael and Phyllis.

    Growing up in Philadelphia when this song was released it always had a special place in my heart. It always seemed to be played on the radio. As a young boy seeing the older girls and women swoon when it was played taught me the power of music. 😅🤣❤️❤️❤️🙏🏾

    You make that face like you are feeling it, right? This song is deep. So warm and romantic. Now, imagine if you loved someone at that time (for those who were around at that time), and you talk about making you swoon. Girl!!! 💜💜💜 Now what you need to do is listen to Earth, Wind and Fire's "Lover's Holiday." You talk about a song making you feel so good that you want to cry! 😭lol.

    I was in the 10th grade when this LP came out and two years in with a the young lady I married the year of 1979. Our Marriage sound is Valintin's Love, to the young Black youngersters of today We the older Adults who are now in our 60's and early 80's had music that inspired Love of our souls and selves. If y'all want to feel in your souls the Love we had for each other back then, i say pull up the Music from 1965 to 1983, and listen to the message of Love and life then y'all will fall in Love with yourself and each other.
    This is our Gospel Music, the so-called sound called music today is destructive to the soul.

    OK! I feel you need a little introduction. Norman Connors is a drummer producer. The voice is Michael Henderson & he died about 2 yrs. ago. R.I.P. Sir!!! Norman has a knack for finding & being responsible for different peoples careers. Norman does sing himself, but mostly he was known for putting others on the map; like Quincy Jones producing Michael Jackson's earlier hits, like, 'Don't Stop Till You Get Enough."
