For those who love old school, here is some news you shoulld hear. If you love the Supremes, Temptations and the popular Marvin Gaye, then you would have heard of Frank Wilson or even know something about him. Frank Wilson has died at 71 in Southern California.
Frank Wilson worked with the Supremes, the Temptations and Marvin Gaye. His Daughter Tracey Stein tells the Los Angeles Times  that Wilson died of lung infection complications on Sept. 27 in a hospital in Duarte.
 Frank Wilson, who later became a minister, wrote or co-wrote the hits "Love Child" for Diana Ross and the Supremes, "Chained" for Marvin Gaye and "All I Need" for the Temptations.
After Eddie Kendricks left the Temptations, Wilson produced his 1973 hit "Keep On Truckin' (Part 1)."
Wilson also helped write "You've Made Me So Very Happy," a 1967 Top 40 single for Motown's Brenda Holloway that soon became an even bigger hit for Blood, Sweat and Tears.

REST IN PEACE....
