Today in Motown History – July 27th
July 27
Happy Birthday songwriter and producer Harvey Fuqua (1929).
Although Mr. Fuqua is not as widely known as some the other more celebrated Motown writers and producers – he was very instrumental in the careers of two of Motown’s top acts – the Supremes and Marvin Gaye.
Mr. Fuqua was a positive influence in the early years of Marvin Gaye’s career, while leading the legendary group Harvey Fuqua and the Moonglows – later Mr. Fuqua co-wrote one of the Supremes biggest hits “Someday We’ll Be Together” for the Diana Ross farewell tour.
It just goes to show, that your brand can take a secondary seat and still achieve greatness.
Use your most valued asset, in leveraging opportunities with others.
Collectively all participants can achieve a higher goal by subordinating their contributing talents with the like talents of others.
