Ok, can somebody please tell me who sang this song first? Was it Leon Haywood or Johnny Taylor? Nobody answered me the 1st time. | |

Your talking 'bout Carl Carlton & Leon.. They were label mates @ 20th Century Records. Leon wrote some of the songs on Carlton's eponymous album from '81, including "This Feeling's Rated X-Tra" which was first done by Leon on his "Come And Get Yourself Some" album '75.
..as far as I know "The Wailer, Johnnie Taylor" was the first to record "Your Love Is Rated X". [Edited 4/20/10 15:26pm]   National Funk League✮✮ | |
