KIM WESTON
 
 
Kim Weston  (born December 20, 1939) is an American soul singer, and Motown alumna.  In the 1960s, Weston scored hits with the songs "Love Me All the Way" and "Take Me in Your Arms (Rock Me a Little While)", and with her duet with Marvin Gaye, "It Takes Two".  (More from Wikipedia)
 
 

Mikki was born Mikki Farrow in Detroit.  She met and married a legendary saxophone player named Andrew "Mike" Terry in the mid-1960's.  In his Allmusic entry, Jason Ankeny writes:  "The baritone saxophone of Andrew 'Mike' Terry remains an indelible component of the famed Motown sound. . . . Terry's résumé reads like a roll call of soul's greatest hits – his Motown track record alone spans chart smashes including the Four Tops' 'I Can't Help Myself', the Isley Brothers' 'This Old Heart of Mine (Is Weak for You)', Kim Weston's 'Take Me in Your Arms (Rock Me a Little While)', and Marvin Gaye's 'Baby Don't You Do It'; and as a freelancer he played on monsters like Jackie Wilson's 'Higher and Higher', the Fascinations' 'Girls Are out to Get You', and the Capitols' 'Cool Jerk'."
