Motown songwriter and producer Frank Wilson has died at the age of 71.
Wilson died yesterday (September 27) after reportedly suffering from prostate cancer, Wigan Today reports.
As well as writing and producing hits for the likes of Stevie Wonder, Tina Turner, Martha Reeves & The Vandellas, the Four Tops, The Supremes and others, Wilson also recorded his own hits.
One of only two vinyl copies of his version of 1965's 'Do I Love You (Indeed I Do)' was sold for £25,000 at auction in 2009.
Wilson left Motown in 1976 and became a born-again Christian, producing gospel music.
