Ross claimed that radio stations received phone calls saying that in the event that they played ‘Torn,’ they wouldn’t receive records from “this group anymore.”
“I can’t speak on that,” Luckett replied. ‘I’ll allow you to speak on that.”
“When your record went to radio,” Ross recalled. “There was a call put in that in the event you play that record, in the event you play that record, you won’t get no more records from this group.”
“But you understand what? God be the glory,” said Luckett.
“That record fought through that,” he added. “There was a mandate called as much as the radio stations.”
