#52 - DELBERT MCCLINTON - Giving It Up For Your Love (#8 - 2/21/1981 - 19 Weeks)
McClinton has been active in the music biz since 1962 and has released 28 albums. This was his only song to hit the Top 40 (although he had 3 others crack the Hot 100). Oddly enough, he did not have a song hit the Billboard Blues chart until 35 years into his career, but he's had 7 songs hit #1 or #2 on the blues chart since. Hats off to him, at 78 years old, he is still touring.
The song was written by Jerry Williams, who recorded 31 albums himself. He never had a song hit the American charts. Not sure how McClinton ended up with the song, but it was the only major hit between the two of them.
On deck, a song that asks how do rumors get started . . .
