Tata Vega recorded a song that I remember called "Come In Heaven [[Earth Is Calling) back in the 70's on Motown. There was a male voice on that song that echo'd her chant. Does anyone know who that voice was ? Does anyone remember the song ?

Al Johnson, formerly of the Unifics. In my opinion, perhaps the greatest Motown recording ever made. [[not commercially, of course.)

Thanks MIKEW
This was truly a hidden gem. It was like getting two songs in one.
