Writer-producer Jerry Ragovoy (1930-2011):



I could have included him in the Brill Building thread, but he seems to fit better here

Howard Tate - "Get It While You Can"




Erma Franklin - "Piece Of My Heart" (Aretha's sister)



Some may know these songs via covers by Janis Joplin (she also did Ragovoy's "Cry Baby" -- see OP)


Irma Thomas - "Time Is On My Side"




Lorraine Ellison - "Stay With Me"

It's ironic that the "northern soul" sound was perfected by a Jew from New.York.City.

Jerry Ragavoy was the very embodiment of soul. The Stones did a superb version of "Time Is On My Side".
