I was pregnant with my daughter at the time. She was quiet until the music started when the late, great Jackie Wilson came out singing "Higher and Higher". The fast tempo of the music made her wake up and dance within me.

The following month, January 1975, Jackie Wilson collapsed and never recovered. He mad fantastic music.
