Yes Indeed! Gene Chandler is one of the leading lights of the Soul Era. Among his many hits, my favorites are "Just Be True", "Nothing Can Stop Me" & "Groovy Situation". He also had his own label imprint, Mister Chand, during his stay on Mercury Records in the early '70s.

I Agree with that! Gene Chandler deserves to have an episode of Unsung.

It's funny, I heard so much Gene Chandler growing up, between the radio and my cousins
record collections that I never acquired any of his music to listen to on my own. I have to
fix that..Nothing Can Stop Me....

And the beauty of it is that he's still with us and could provide his own point of view. I wonder if TVOne has ever approached him...

I love Gene Chandler's music! I wore out socks doing the "James Brown" to this when I was a kid LOL
