But see that's a perfect example with Billy Paul, as he had more than Me & Mrs. Jones. He better stuff than that, Let The Dollar Circulate comes to mind. I would be interested in his pre Philly International history myself. As far as KATG, I would be more interested in the 69-76 era and not the JT Taylor stuff, but they would probably focus more on that.
You can add the Thomas family to the list ( Rufus, Carla and Vaneese ).
