  • To 1lordthorpe; I knew what'The Sound of Detroit" was. The music got my attention instantly, Even if it wasn't a Motown cut. Still the Motown musicians were pumping out REAL MUSIC!! Keep Listening.

  • wow what a great sound, brings back some great memories.............of piss land

  • Top drawer soul music!!!! does it come any better than this?........answer NO!!!!!!

  • What a fab voice, clicked on this by mistake I was tracking Ruby Winters. Never heard of this lady before wonderful. I am so glad I am old, and we discovered things like this as teenagers, instead of listening to the dirge kids are offered these days

    Ruby Andrews FAB, Good wishes to garnoldmusic.

  • Gives me goosebumps, loved dancing to it, love listening to it. Beautiful soulful sound.

  • So glad I stumbled into this song tonight. I remember the first time hearing it I was in Nha Trang, Vietnam. It was sounding good then and it,s even greater now. This was one of the things that kept us golng. To all my fellow WAR VETS; WELCOME HOME!!! Brother Heavy 14thFMS

  • Absolutely superb sound

  • I really can't express how much I love this tune.

  • On the Northern/RnB/Mod scene, there are thousands of top records. You would think therefore, that choosing a favourite from them all would be very difficult. However, there is only 1 record that continually makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up when I hear it and this is it. Thanks for those moments Ruby.

  • @alicebren1

    yep me too :)) keep the faith

  • @alicebren1 yeah i can relate to that, this is quality soul, absolutley top notch

  • Class Northern at its best

  • Still the only record that can make me burst into tears when I hear it..incredible

  • on about walsall how about the royale hotel good old pep

  • top draw brill tune so keep the faith

  • Brilliant. What a song . Top class

  • superb !!

  • one of the very best ever Northern Soul /Soul records ever

  • Since Dave Godin recommended this to the readers of Blues & Soul, or was this recommendation whilst he was with Black Echoes??? I have loved this song, used to be a ballad!

  • Dave Godin reviewed this during his sojourn with 'Black Music' magazine, C.1975 - though he'd actually played it at a Deep Soul disco(!) he ran at The Phonograph in Walsall, West Midlands in 1974. He'd probably had it since it's initial release. Copies back then used to sell for as little as .50p.

  • Goes for about £200 now, what an investment.

  • I guess, but I only paid .30p for Wade Flemons "Jeanette"! -

    Unfortunately I sold it long before it took off again... :-(

  • This is one song i like to hear lots :)

  • bless you  - what a classic

  • One of the all time favorite hand dance songs.

  • just beautiful....

  • Exquisite

  • absolutley fab tune

  • Heard about this song on a forum about things people have tattooed. (Quite a few have these lyrics or title). Never heard it before but it is absolutely lovely. I can imagine dancing to this at an all-nighter.

    Pure class. Pure soul.

  • Northern at its best

  • I agree this song just floats along so gracefully

  • There is something about this track that elevates it to another level with the all time classics
