Several people have made fun of Freda Payne's name and suggested she had
only one hit. Just for the record, she had 6 singles that charted in the
Billboard Hot 100. "Band of Gold" was indeed her biggest (#3 in 1970),
but other charted tunes were "Deeper and Deeper" (#24 in 1970), "Cherish
What is Dear To You" (#44 in 1971), "Bring The Boys Home" (#12 in 1971),
"You Brought The Joy" (#52 in 1971) and "The Road We Didn't Take" (#100
in 1972).
She is the sister of the Supremes' Scherrie Payne and was the host of
the 1980's syndicated TV talk show "For You, Black Woman".
