      This song was #1 in Toronto (1050 CHUM AM) on my 10th birthday (June 28, 1970) and I bought the ‘45 and wore it out ❤

    There is some mystery to this song. Some people think it is about an impotent man, while others think it is about a frigid woman. In an interview with Lamont Dozier, who co-wrote the song, he explained: "The story was, the girl found out this guy was not all there. He had his own feelings about giving his all. He wanted to love this girl, he married the girl, but he couldn't perform on his wedding night because he had other issues about his sexuality. I'll put it that way."

      I've heard all of the mythical storylines as well; but never heard that Lamont Dozier (RIP) actually confirmed one of the storylines. I ask you: From which interview was this spoken?
      Considering Stonewall occurred in 1969, and "Bank of Gold" came out in 1970, there is something peculiar about the time line, and the events of the world at that time

    This is one of my favorite songs that I have loved since it first came out. It is an irresistible pop/soul/disco tune. Yes, the lyrics are at odds with the tone of the song -- counterpoint. Her husband walked out on her on her wedding night, but you've not saddened because the tune is so catchy and upbeat. Doesn't it make you want to get up and dance (I did)!

    Freda's label, Invictus was formed by ex-Motown songwriting hitmakers Holland-Dozier-Holland, with house band The Funk Brothers playing on it. Gordy was SO retarded not renewing HDH's contract-- Even more so when he tried to sue them for "exploiting the Motown sound" (He lost in court, but made sure he got the Funk Brothers under contract with a clause they only play for his label quickly afterwards ) Dunno why Payne didn't have more hits with a voice like that!!

    Lamont Dozier, who co-wrote the song, he explained: "The story was, the girl found out this guy was not all there. He had his own feelings about giving his all. He wanted to love this girl, he married the girl, but he couldn't perform on his wedding night because he had other issues about his sexuality. I'll put it that way. It was about this guy that was basically gay, and he couldn't perform. He loved her, but he couldn't do what he was supposed to do as a groom, as her new husband." This was released on Invictus Records, which Brian Holland, Lamont Dozier and Eddie Holland formed after they left Motown in 1968. Holland-Dozier-Holland produced the track and wrote it with their collaborator Ron Dunbar, but because of their dispute with Motown, the H-D-H trio couldn't put their names on the label and credited themselves as "Edythe Wayne." Members of the Motown house band The Funk Brothers played on the track.
    Because of the subject matter, Freda Payne did not want to record this at first. She thought the song was about a woman who was a virgin or sexually naïve, and felt it was more suitable for a teenager.
    When Payne objected to this song, Ron Dunbar (co-writer of the song) said to her, "Don't worry. You don't have to like them! Just sing it," and she did. Little did she know that this song would become her biggest hit and would give her her first record of gold.
    The lead guitarist on this track was Ray Parker Jr., who later found success with the theme song for the comedy movie Ghostbusters.
    Freda Payne is the older sister of Scherrie Payne, the final lead singer of The Supremes. Holland-Dozier-Holland wrote many of The Supremes' hits.
    Freda Payne said of this song: "It is about a wedding night that didn't work out. I wondered why a girl would have a problem on her wedding night and why they would be in separate rooms, but they said, 'Just learn it.' I had no idea that it would be such a big hit."
