Stateside Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 This must have been touted around quite a bit in the 70's "You can't stop a man in love" written by Terry Woodford and George Soule and in most versions, produced or arranged by Terry Woodford and Clayton Ivey These are the ones I know of Carl Carlton Reuben Howell Bobby Womack The Supremes (You can't stop a girl in love) The Temptations Wilson Pickett Anymore?

Mick Holdsworth Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 George Soule also recorded it, albeit just as a demo, and not released until CD a few years back. Suppose that's the first. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Shinehead Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 I only heard the Temps version a few months ago and it blew me away, the only version what seems to have deviated from the others. It took. me a while to realize it was the same song. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Stateside Posted January 27, 2017 Author Share Posted January 27, 2017 Carl Carlton's was the first version I ever heard and bought as a new release and I always thought that to be the first. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest johnny hart Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 To the original question,"How many versions issued 7 ,unless you know different? "Which came 1st " ? Well this is the correct order according to Chris Tarrant! Wilson Pickett= 1970 Atlantic unreleased ,til later "Soul Brothers Unearthed lp Reuben Howell =1973 Motown single /beside Carl Carlton=1973 ABC/single Bobby Womack 1973 Facts of Life Lap Supremes = 1975 Lp Temptations=1975 ,House party Lap Jimmy Ellidge 1975 /bside 12inch single Most popular in popularity stakes and price Rub'ys slice of Sunshine pop/ country .In Manny,s primero price guide in 2001 it was £15 16 years later ,RNS,Discogs,eBay etc have it at £250.
