I spoke to Herbert Campbell on a few occasions many years ago and still have the cassette recordings of those conversations

With regards to 'Double Cookin' he referenced the fact that it was very heavily influenced by the Motown sound and in particular the strings on Kim Weston's - I'm Still Loving You ...  which he said had received a lot of local airplay when released the previous year  ..... I think many of us had clocked that but it was interesting that he confirmed it was so

That makes complete sense since Herb was known as the DJ  Bert Bell  "The Ding Dong Daddy of Soul" on KSOL.  Here's one of their surveys with Kim at # 30 -

And a photo here he was still playing tunes until 1970 when KSOL stopped it's Soul Show and clearly knew Sly Stone
