"For Your Love" #20 8/5/1967

The second hit single for Peaches & Herb was written and first done in 1958 by Ed Townsend, and his version became an R&B standard. Ed pitched the song to Capitol Records hoping Nat "King" Cole would sing it, but the suits at the label offered him a record deal instead. Along with Marvin Gaye, Ed co-wrote "Let's Get It On" in 1973.
