Sexy mama
Sylvia “Pillow Talk” (London Records) “Pillow Talk” held the number one R&B spot for two weeks and made it to number three pop on Billboard’s charts in 1973. “You can’t find love on a one-way street…” Check out the sexy lyrics here! And check out her performance on Soul Train!! Here’s to you Mrs. Robinson!
Sylvia Robinson recorded in the early fifties with Hot Lips Page, then as “Little Sylvia” on the Savoy label, but it was with guitarist Mickey Baker as half of “Mickey and Sylvia” that she scored a number one R&B hit with “Love is Strange” in early 1957.

I found the mint album for $1.00 back in the 80s in a NYC Used Record Store, and I treasure it.
