ONE OF MY FAVORITES DURING MY HIGH SCHOOL DAYS

[@lorenzacoleman9210]

When l was around 12 or 13 l would listen to this song on WOKJ in Jackson Mississippi late at night. I was starting to be come a man and longed for the attention of my father who lived in Virginia. I lived in Oklahoma at the time. This song like many other soulful tunes set the background for my life and those days ahead.

Sudan ThaGod: Thank you for getting back to me! The answer to your question on the background voices on "The River Of Tears" are believe it or not, the Chi-lites along with the soprano voice of Barbara Acklin! Truly Remarkable!
