Todays 3-2-1 Hit: TAKE A LETTER MARIA by R.B. Greaves. Sam Cookes nephews chart career started in a big way with this million-selling tale of a cheated-on husband who starts to hit on his secretary a couple of minutes later. Ronald Bertram Greaves never had this kind of success again, although he charted singles for another three years. Maria -- with its Cooke-esque vocal -- peaked at #2 in November 1969. youtube/watch?v=KvFsULpx0To
