Checker..a subsiduary of Chess ? lol
i like her voice....but the song just lacks something imo....maybe a beginning , a middle and an end?..just nit picking X....most music i love tells a story....well except Oobie Doobie by Roy Orbison ..lol
Pretty much "for dancers only". No intention for anything more than that...
Some of the best of 1962. I was surprised "Green Onions" was that old.
She was more than just "My Guy" it seems. I prefer this actually.
"You Beat Me to the Punch"

This was a cover of The Whatnauts 1970 version. I think the cover is superior. Same producer George Kerr.
Jerry Butler and Smokey Robinson had a song with the same title but completely different lyrics and sound.

Many content Eddie Kendricks had the best male falsetto. Hard to disagree with that after listening to this beauty. So clean and crisp. Damn The Temptations had two of the very best soul voices ever in him and David Ruffin.
"Can I"
"Can I"
"At night I can't sleep I toss and turn. Candlesticks in the dark, visions of bodies being burned. Four walls just staring at a N1gga. I'm paranoid, sleeping with my finger on the trigger." One of the greatest samples in hip hop history.
Dougie you are on a falsetto roll....here is one
done years after the original.....and as a young guy way back then i really liked this song..but i couldnt tell my "macho" friends that ..lol
I bought a Stones Album called Out Of Our Heads as an early teen....at the time i just started out listening to Soul....bought a couple of Albums and a few singles
anyway i learned that these 2 songs were Covers of Soul songs
I searched for these singles and i bought them...still have them 60 years later
Yikes...thank god i can retreat back to my collection
