    My friends and I made our own weekly record charts out in the 70s, comparing our favorite songs. We considered anything that was on the radio: pop, country, rock, or soul. On November 11, 1972, "If Loving You Is Wrong" hit #1 on my list. I loved it.

    Videos like this always make me wish I would've been around in the 70's. It looks so cool and those clothes are everything. And don't get me started on the music... lawd have mercy! Every genre from that decade back then I absolutely love. It seems like almost everyone back then had naturally beautiful voices. It took talent to sing in those days and that's what I admire. That's why I love people like Adele and Bruno Mars for today's generation, they're naturally talented and they prove that in their live performances.

    Beautiful song. An ode to anyone who has been in and understands love, and what love can do to a person. He asks the question to which he knows the answer, but is looking for redemption for his soul over his quandary. Yes, it's wrong, we all know, shoot, he knows. But love makes you feel otherwise. Someone said it's a warning...yes it is, 'cause in the end, you have nothing and have given everything for it. Now that's soul! RIP Luther...we understand, and thank you for leaving us this gem.

      We all have our shortcoming who is judging who? at least Ingram said it with a sophisticated lyrics and beautiful voice and melody.That's what art means,it doesn't have to happen to you.but putting reality in art that goes in this life and in this world in general.

    His Sister was actually my School teacher at Alton High in Alton IL. Before he really became gravely ill he had the intention of forming a band composed of myself and two other of his nephews. Believe it or not both of his nephews had distinct features of famous people. One actually looked like prince the other like baby face. Both could sing a peacock out of her feathers lol
