discoCP Spencer dies at 65, was tenor for the Originals.

C.P. Spencer, whose soaring tenor voice led the hit song
ìBaby Iím For Real,î by Motown group the Originals, died Wednesday 20 October of a heart attack.

The Oak Park resident was 65 best known to members of this website for "Down To Love Town," but this highly collectable Motown group made consistently good records throughout their career. 'Dont Stop Now' being an anthem in U.K rare soul clubs in recent times.

C.P's last recordings were for Motorcity records in the early 90s. R.I.P C P SPENCER.

YOUR COMMENTS ON C.P. Spencer

My reaction was wooahh, I was a big fan of the ORIGINALS, loved DOWN TO LOVE TOWN so much, that as a young deejay I wrote a letter to MOTOWN requesting more copies of the album,(remember the little fox on the cover!). They asked me why, and how many. I responded by telling them that this record was so hot it melted!! They didn't believe me, but sent me ten copies anyhow. I later found out that it was at the urging of SPENCER that I received them. His reasoning, ANY DEEJAY who wants my record to play at a club, can have as many as he can use. Guess what, I eventually used them all, and still have four copies!! I am going DOWN TO LOVE TOWN right now. Thanks and God Bless.
