He also wrote “Intimate Friends” that was recorded by Eddie Kendricks and later sampled by Alicia Keys for the Grammy Award-nominated recording “Unbreakable.” BiographyGarry Dewayne Glenn was born on May 12, 1955 in Detroit, the son of Robert and Bonnie (née Beard) Glenn. As a teenager, he toured with his sister, Gospel singer, Beverly Glenn. By the late 1970s, he turned his attention to songwriting. In the 1980s he was a frequent songwriting collaborator with Dianne Quander. His songs have been recorded by The Dramatics, Earth, Wind & Fire, The Emotions, Eddie Kendricks, Jean Carne and Anita Baker.[1][2][3][4] Selected Songwriting Credits
Recording artistIn 1980, Glenn recorded his eponymous album for PPL Records. Later, he joined the Motown roster, which released his second and final album, Feels Good To Feel Good in 1987, which was moderately successful. On the latter album, he wrote or co-wrote all of the songs (including four with Dianne Quander).[2][4] DeathGlenn died on September 27, 1991 from kidney failure.[2][3] LegacyHis songs continued to be recorded by other artists and sampled by others. His song, "Intimate Friends" (as recorded by Eddie Kendricks) was sampled on the track, "Old Time's Sake" by Sweet Sable, which appeared on the 1994 soundtrack for Above the Rim. In 2005, Alicia Keys sampled the same song on "Unbreakable." The latter recording was nominated for two Grammys and won two NAACP Image Awards.
