Note: 
For Your Precious Love, by The Flames (Jerry Butler/ Joe Brooks/ Arthur Brooks), was #1 on the Springbok Radio charts in October 1968 and spent 11 weeks in the Top Twenty. This classic emotional love song with its spoken introduction will always be associated, by South Africans, with Durban-based band The Flames. However many people are unaware that is was originally sung by Jerry Butler and The Impressions in 1958. The Impressions also featured Curtis Mayfield in their line-up.
