Clarence Carter is, unfortunately, remembered for Patches and Strokin' which is unfortunate, because I don't really like either song.

I have this period in time from mid-1968 to the end of 1971 when I was first really discovering music and studying it. I have really fond memories of the great soul music in that 3-1/2 years and many of those songs I can still play over and over. Clarence Carter's Too Weak to Fight and Slip Away. Wilson Pickett's Don't Let the Green Grass Fool You and Don't Knock My Love. Jerry Butler's Moody Woman and Only the Strong Survive. Brook Benton's superb Rainy Night in Georgia. The Delfonics' Ready or Not Here I Come and Didn't I Blow Your Mind. I could go on and on.
