1972: The writing was on the wall when this hit went to number one today

Share:

This Motown tune soared to number one today in 1972 and became one of the most memorable soul songs of all time.

As the lead single for the Talking Book album by this artist, it became a worldwide hit.

Rolling Stone ranked this ‘spooky’ song as number 74 in their 500 Greatest Songs of All Time list.

The first number one in 9 years for this singer, who defied his disability to become an iconic blues musician.

With a funky beat, it is automatically recognisable when played, even today.

Can you guest what this song is?
