    “I’m a Sucker for Your Love” is a duet by Teena Marie and Rick James from Teena’s 1979 album entitled “Wild and Peaceful. “I’m a Sucker for Your Love” is the first song on the album. The song features a blend of Funk and R&B, showcasing the vocal chemistry between the two artists. Both Teena Marie and Rick James were influential figures in the funk and soul music scene during the late 70s and 80s, and their collaborations are well remembered for their energy and catchy melodies.

    The album Wild and Peaceful was released by Motown. It features significant contributions from Rick James who produced and wrote the bulk of material as well as providing co-vocals on "I'm a Sucker for Your Love".

    Even though I haven't been hearing "I'm a Sucker for Your Love" frequently on the radio lately, it certainly hasn't been forgotten online. There's a noticeable audience tuning in to the song, and many people have the vinyl record. Additionally, you can find Teena and Rick delivering a live performance of the song on YouTube.

    Intro by: Gail Nobles


    "Son of a Preacher Man" is a song recorded by British singer Dusty Springfield in September 1968 for the album Dusty in Memphis. It became an international hit, reaching no. 9 in the UK singles chart and no. 10 on Billboard's Hot 100 in January 1969. The album Dusty in Memphis was released in stereo, though its singles were remixed and released in mono.

    "Son of a Preacher Man" was Springfield's last Top 30 hit until 1987, when her collaboration with UK synthpop duo the Pet Shop Boys yielded the huge hit "What Have I Done to Deserve This?". "Son of a Preacher Man" found a new audience when it was included on the soundtrack of Quentin Tarantino's 1994 film Pulp Fiction; a re-release of the single reached number one in Iceland in 1995.
