Gene McFadden ( McFadden & Whitehead ) has passed away.

Unfortunately, I haven't found much news about this as of today. He passed away Friday the 27th . John Whitehead of course was murdered in 2004. Gene was only 56.

GOD bless his family and friends left behind.

I remember the sons of one the Whitehead Bros. had a song in 94' "Your love is a 187" and "Forget I was a 'G'"

Don't laugh, but I have the cd. It's called Serious. It wasn't that bad. Hey, I was a freshman in college.

Many props to Toby at Soulwalking. If I wasn't for him, I wouldn't know so many soul greats have left us.

Amen.

I'm glad he got through the little rough patch and the site is still up.

Some of the 'New R & B' girl bands are made to look like mannequins. The singers stage has become a catwalk. Hum me one of their tunes? This is my point in a nutshell. There are no more 'Say A Little Prayers' or 'Woman To Woman's' on the mass pop market. These 'oldies' may be sampled, however, new similar product generated lies mainly ignored. 'Misty Blue' was a big hit for Dorothy Moore in the Seventies. Would it make todays charts? I don't believe so. Thesedays you have to look below stairs for the real deal and, believe me, it is still there.

I remember writing to him then. I really never thought he would respond to me. Toby's site is the only reason I knew Lyn Collins had passed away.
