Good Old-Fashioned Forgotten Hits #3

We've been listening to Soul Town quite a bit lately on Sirius XM - 

It's a chance to revisit some of the great R&B Soul Classics from the '60's and '70's without the heavy repetition that we hear on some of their other stations.

So it was fun to hear "I Want'a Do Something Freaky To You" by Leon Haywood the other day ... a #15 pop hit in 1975.

Besides his 14 Billboard Top 40 R&B Chart Hits, Leon hit the national pop charts a dozen times, too ... but none of those other records came close to achieving the popularity that this track did.  (In fact, "Freaky" was his ONLY Top 40 Pop Hit.)

So we'll close out our little Good Old-Fashioned Forgotten Hits Trilogy (and the week) with this one!  (kk)
