He also produced Barry White.
For me he was the guy who wrote and recorded "Love Theme", actually the 
instrumental background used as B-side to Felice Taylor's hit single "I'm 
Under The Influence Of Love" in 1967. The heavy beat was supplied by the 
best session drummer of all times, Earl Palmer - who also started out on 78 
rpm recordings, and passed away just a year ago.
