I loved this guy as a kid, now too. Guys like him and others from the Black communities were the foundations of evolving genres; the English took it and ran with it more than anyone else. But I sure didn't know this as a kid so now I appreciate them more than ever.

I love how in the era of this track, they just wrote these catchy little tunes; 3 minutes or less.  Just little musical snacks.  Not everything had to be a freakin' opus.

I've heard lots of versions of this song over the years, but you just can't beat the original. Yowza!

More new tunes today, nice.
Reminds me of Showaddywaddy.
