DUARTE, Calif. — Motown record producer and songwriter Frank Wilson, who worked with the Supremes, the Temptations and Marvin Gaye, died Sept. 27 in Duarte, Calif., of lung infection complications. He was 71.
Wilson wrote or co-wrote the hits “Love Child" for Diana Ross and the Supremes, “Chained" for Marvin Gaye and “All I Need" for the Temptations.
Wilson also helped write “You’ve Made Me So Very Happy," a 1967 Top 40 single for Motown’s Brenda Holloway that soon became an even bigger hit for Blood, Sweat and Tears.
His “Do I Love You (Indeed I Do)," became an underground hit in Britain in the 1970s. A rare copy of the song sold for $39,294 in 2009, making it the most expensive single ever auctioned.
