[QueenCC12]

This is very creepy!

[MikeStone05]

I don't know if anybody did recognize that the musicians that are playing behind this groove track is actually Rose Royce...before "Car Wash" took off.

[samjabo]

@MikeStone05 You are correct. Rose Royce was the backing band for the undisputed Truth's two albums, "Higher Than High" and "Methond To the Madness". You can even almost think that these are Rose Royce's songs?

[michaeljulius119]

@samjabo Only the horn section from Rose Royce is playing on this track. Johnny McGhee is on guitar, Norman Zeller on rhythm, Butch Azevedo on drums and I'm playing bass. I layed 3 basslines on

this track

[bbBassYo]

@RubioRaver

Well at least these people know how to make some great fuckin music

[jody808]

what i want to know is why did Whitfield let this group flander

artistically like this? i know by this time in 1976 he had his own label deal and Roll Royce hitting.

[smellmyfarts]

OMG this is still the best music!

M dyin to hear POONTANG, can u blame me?

[amazingeddie]

"...I used to hate it til I ate it."

(lyric from Poontang...)

[PCchongor]

[Mongo76]

Who is the dude on the end on the right ?

[xiloves]

I see where KIZZ got it from...Bite

[seventiessoulchild]

Yes SoulTrain was watched by MANY people, some wanted to copy the moves and the acts. lol

[michaeljulius119]

I think Duke played on "Ma" That man was mean on that bass....

[samjabo]

Myke, whether it is you, or Lequeint from Rose Royce, I have to say that both of your bass playing contribution to these songs is the thing that make people hear them again and again and never get fed up.

[bootsamou]

I got this in my collection, but it wasnt as big in the UK as U+Me .

Sorry to hear about Norman .... wow ... he was the "hand-clap king" eh? Such a distinctiv sound.

[r1z0sx6]

cmulwee i believe it was sly and the family stone

[cmulwee001]

Just a bit of trivia: For those of you who don't already know; The Undisputed Truth was the FIRST group the record "Papa Was A Rolling Stone"; their version preceded the Temptations' by about 4 or 5 months. TUT's rendition of "Papa.." is well worth checking out. If I had a way of uploading it, I would.

[xiloves]

You need to upload that, I would luv to hear it. If there is a will there is a way!

[pfenix14]

what the hell!!

[binki3]

My apologies Ms. McDonald- I thought it was Taka Boom who sang with Undisputed Truth on this song. But you've got to admit that Chaka Khan does sound like you :)

[msvermell]

The female Vocalist is Me" Vee McDonald" not Taka Boom..

[cosmicdelight7]

Can I congratulate you for being involved in such an amazing group both musically and visually. How did you come to decide on your image?

[binki3]

The female vocalist is Taka Boom- Sister of Chaka Khan. They sound & move alot alike.

[Mongo76]

Taka Was a vocalist for TUT but she wasn't the only one. She left. You can tell the female voice by the lead. Taka sounds a lot like chaka. Vee has a crisper, purer tone.

[michaeljulius119]

A Motown legend Norman Whitfield died today at 3:15 pacific. A volatile brother, but a definite master craftsman. Norman put a ton of performers on the map with his hit songwriting. The Temps, Gladys & the Pips, Marvin Gaye, Rose Royce, Rare Earth...the list is endless. RIP Norman

[hylozoik]

hm ... that makes me sad ;-( - Yes, R.I.P Norman

[michaeljulius119]

This is incredible to watch and listen to. The musicians are Johnny McGhee (LTD, The Stairsteps), Butch Azevedo on drums, Norman Zeller on 2nd guitar and me Myke Julius on bass. Joe Pep lead vocals Dhaak, Big and Lil Ty(Tyrone) and Vee. Produced by Norman Whitfield. This was recorded at MoWest studio in LA. The spirit and energy we had was incredible. I leave U w/ a line from a song we cut called "Poontang" "I use 2 hate it 'til I ate it I ain't talkinf 'bout tuna fish y'all."

[samjabo]

Great work Myke. Were you also the bass player on MA or was it the "duke" from Rose Royce? Thanks again for playing great music. You guys are great.

[jfnorton1066]

What did Cornealus have in mind when he cut this loose? Boogie on down!
