    Beautiful song and video production. However, notice neither Michael McDonald or Patty LaBelle are together at any time while singing this love song?

    The producers believed it would be too (ahem) controversial for an interracial couple to be featured in close proximity or God forbid, touching. So they came up with the concept of two lovers singing a plaintiff duet...from opposite coasts.

    In 1972 I had a personal love affair with The Delfonics Theme. It was soul elevator music and the Philly sound at its finest.

    Uh, neither is Stax. But there were a lot of great tunes that weren’t Motown or Philly. I simply wrote that as a title rather than write do you know black music?
