I was humming this tune today and got to discussing Minnie with Ron Beitle (the only guy I know personally with a #1 single). Ronnie told me what an incredible voice Minnie had and talked about her ability to reach notes in the whistle register long before Mariah Carey got famous doing it. Im sure you know the song, and you may know that she was Maya Rudolphs mother, but her most important legacy may be that she was one of the first celebs to bring attention to breast cancer. Sadly, she lost her battle in 1979 at just 31 years old. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minnie_Riperton
