Frederick Knight's catchy I've Been Lonely for So Long was a sizable RB hit on Stax in 1972, and he wrote and produced Anita Ward's across-the-board smash Ring My Bell in 1979. Knight cut his own I've Been Lonely for So Long in Birmingham, Alabama with a seasoned southern soul crew behind him, and hit again in 1975 with I Betcha Didn't Know That. ~ Bill Dahl, Rovi
