Danced to this classic in the 67' this was up there with the "Tighten Up" by Archie Bell & the Drells. Clark JHS Bronx NY, yess sir, this was the jammy at that time friends.
3 quarter leather jackets, English leather cologne, Mini Skirts, patent leather shoes, Kangol hats tipped to side, shark skin or Pepper Silk pants, Knit shirts, was the dress at that time in the Bronx, lookin' good and dancin' to the this jammy at the school dances or at parties. Great song for that time still is.
58 yrs. young but still a kid when I listen to "Holt Unlimited"
Peace 2 ya
Another great song I had completely forgotten. I shouldn't be that surprised, though, I still can't comprehend that my mind holds as much music, lyrics and all, as what it does, lol.
Thank you for uploading this song. This had to be one of the best feel good songs ever. How anyone could have given this song a thumbs down is beyond me. Just love this one... Get on up! yea!
Classic soul at its best! Wish those days of true R&B could be revised! Too bad there is no way to return to the past! Those were the days when soul music rocked
and I was a part of that bygone era! Thank you for this timeless post!
