X are you ever bringing back memories from my early years. I used to go to house parties quite often and when I would arrive, my friends would ask me "Did you bring your Flamingo album with you"? Their cover of I Only Have Eyes For You was one of the greatest slow dance songs or all times. It had that slow r & b, Doo Wop sound that was sooo cool and the rest of the album also featured a lot of other great tunes. I would love to ask my wife to dance now, but she is sound asleep. LOL.
Otis,s cover........and are they really singing about a back scratch, or something else?..wink wink nod nod
Footage shot in 1969, compiled into a 2021 documentary of the 1969 Harlem Cultural Festival. Almost 2 hours in length.
Amazing background interviews, historical event footage, social issues of the day, and the music! Soul, blues, gospel, Nuyorican, psychedelic soul, jazz, etc., etc,
Here's the official trailer:
A must see for lovers of Black music and culture. I downloaded my copy from TPB as a torrent file.
