[soulwally]

Here's The Originals performing live earlier this month [[September). The Line-up is original Original Hank Dixon, his daughter Terrie Dixon, Defrantz Forrest [[son of Gene Chandler) and, interestingly, Jim Gilstrap.
Eric Iversen has uploaded four clips altogether, their biggest hit [[here), The Bells, Down To Love Town and Distant Lover...

Dillon Gorman



Songwriter and publisher at ASCAP


Greater Los Angeles AreaMusic

Current	Anointed And Appointed Productions, ASCAP

Who am I? The son of the late great Freddie Gorman who co-wrote songs for The Beatles, The Carpenters, Marvin Gaye, The Marvellettes, The Supremes, Diana Ross and others.

He was part of the original Holland/Dozier/Gorman writing team and also sang on numerous songs for Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Jimmy Ruffin, Edwin Starr and many others. In other words, when you hear songs like; 'War', 'Yester Me, Yester You, Yesterday', 'For Once in My Life', 'What Becomes of the Broken Hearted' you hear his voice...

He was also a longtime member of Motown's The Originals. Marvin Gaye wrote some of their biggest selling records, including 'Baby I'm for Real', 'The Bells' and 'We Can Make It'. So I guess you can understand where my musical ear comes from!

As I have been blessed to be immersed in music all of my life I have been able to use my skills in working with such acts as Christina Aguilera, Mya, Boyz II Men, En Vogue, Troop, Shanice Wilson and Darius McCrary on tv show Family Matters, the late great John Coltrane's wife Alice Coltrane, Rome, The Party and others.

I'm currently working on a powerful Gospel project entitled "For God's Glory".

Details will be released shortly so stay tuned!
