"Got To Get You Off My Mind" #22 5/1/1965

An R&B #1 that was Solomon Burke's biggest Top 40 hit. He was a pretty busy dude - minister at age 12, signed his first record deal at 15, and had studied to be a mortician. He owned a number of funeral homes and was quite the entrepreneur. Mr. Burke was married four times and had 14 kids starting when he was 14, so yeah, I suppose he needed to work pretty hard.
