This Joy Of One Wonderful Song. Brings Such Lovely Memory's Of My Mother. Growing Up as a Kid at 5 or 6 I Be Leave. My Lovely Mother Just Running House at night. Cooking and Cleaning. With Me and Sister and Also All My adorable Cousins. Just Enjoying The Whole Night With Mouth Watering Food Fresh From The Hot Oven. Stove Top Food Also Smelling So Tasteful That You Have Too Ask, "Is It Ready, Is It Ready MAMA." I Can Remember at That age Just Feeling So Overwhelm With LOVE and as My Family All Share The Same Happiness. As We All Celebrate One Family Dinner I Couldn't Forget This Life Time Or The Next. But That Entire Night I Could Not Take My Mother Eyes Off Her. As I Just Kept On Looking at My Mother With Complete Stock Of Tons Of The Highest Amazement. As I Say Too Myself My Mother is ONE Wonderful Woman. An I'm So Damn Greatful She is My MAMA. So When I hear This POWERFUL SONG. It Comes With a Meaning That Hits My Heart and I Know What Woman Comes Too My Mine. An I Have Express My Feelings Too My Mother about This Song. "I LOVE YOU MAMA"

He was a Lyrical Genius who contributed to the Music Industry in a profound way. His body of work was voluminous and relevant even in our Common Era. I miss his Consciousness and his gentle delivery. I'm 61yrs old and my childhood and teen years were filled with his Music via my father's tastes.. Miss Hill.....I salute you and thank you for preserving a Classic which is worthy of more airtime.
