[capital000000]

1 PERSON WAS HIT AND RAN ON LOL

[port2344chester]

Oldie but goodie 4 sure!!

[vdbeaz]

Loved everything by this group! Saw them many times in Atlanta, at Underground in the 70's. R.I.P Tony. Hello Maurice and Tony.

[blaknificent09]

This is what I'm talking about Album covers! Some you could look at and always enjoy or covers that made you think because they were so profound....but this one I just like to look at. I don't remember this single but I like it. Thanks for posting.

[btinsley1]

@blaknificent09: so you like those provocative album covers? then check out Jack McDuff's - Ju Ju. For a jazz musician, he definitely had "ohio player's" taste...song is badass too...

[drwhatson]

"One Nighter" was a massive underground hit on the UK Soul scene.

Lead singer Tony Washington appears to have upstaged (and preempted) Sylvester in many respects... ;-)

[hughesjr]

Ashford and Simpson strike again. What a great slinky groove and song!

[tempts2000]

@hughesjr yaeh he kinda sound like Nick Asford!!!!

[Shontbowe]

I love how Darien Brockington used the first 7 second of this song on his album.

[FaithNetTV]

I'm an original member of Rock Candy ("Alone with No Love, "I Don't Think I'll Ever Love Another -- Dontee Records, Joe Tate) and gigged regularly w/ Dynamic Superiors in DC.

My mom was best friends with George Spann's mom . . . didn't know he was still alive. Appreciate anyone who can get me in touch with him.

To all of the other soul messengers I gigged with and knew from back in the day who've passed on --- may you rest in peace.

[drwhatson]

@FaithNetTV  Greetings. I have the Rock Candy record "Alone With No Love". It was a big spin at Blackpool Mecca's Highland Room (Ian Levine/Colin Curtis) in 1974.

[FaithNetTV]

@drwhatson . . . Fantastic! Glad you enjoyed . . . stay in touch. Peace and Love, Greg

[rrrickster3137]

This was one hell of a group super talented...They had a short run in the hits department (1974 to 1977)...The R&B Beast ask any R&B Questions....

[bvrtzur]

they came to milwaukee,back in the days,the group said, they were dedicating the song to all the women's in the house, tony,dedicateded the song to all the men's, and the broke out with, shoe,shoe,shine.solid showmanship

[dirtyedna]

....since "Idol" is doing Motown this week it would be nice to have the coaches introduce some of this to them instead of the usual Motown stuff they always do.

[mamcfaddenjr]

My DAD was in the group (road manager and sound man) I'm currently working on the documentary. Let me know if you want to appear (all 70's groupies wanted LOL) - My Dad and Maurice are here in ATL - we will start shooting in FEB. mamcfaddenjr at yahoo

[jv090548]

I was in the group too from around 1969-1970. Please say hi to your dad and to Maurice, from that white boy guitar player that worked with them at the Shelter Room and elsewhere. Mike is a good man. And Maurice too. John

[HUSTLEMAN2]

One of My Fave Klassik Soul Groups!Has Tony Passed away?And Yes I want to see the DOC! That would be cold!I'm so Ol Skool!

[DigitalDezinesCEO]

I read that all had passed for the exception of George Spann. I don't know if it's true, though. They do have a myspace. Check that out.

[mikie1101]

Hey...I saw them perform in 1976-77 (not sure of the date) at the Olympia Theater in Detroit, MI...I believe they opened for the Isley Brothers. Their act was one of the most controversial, I had seen...I LOVED IT!!! Please post, "Shoe Shoe Shine."

[ranus69]

@mikie1101 WOW the Olympia Theater I miss that place

[extwound]

Saw these guys back in the day, Tony used to wreck the place with his version of "Me and Mr. Jones"! Can we get LIVIN FOR WHAT I BELIEVE IN up in here? I know it's long but it's a kickass tune!

[williamg2552]

Could you please post "Deception" by The Superiors? I think it's on this album.

[HUSTLEMAN2]

They Are One of My Fave Klassik Soul Groups!Tony Washington Was The Man!

[Treaty4]

Just pure soul!

[Sassybread]

I've always thought "Shoe Shoe Shine" was a great sound on the Dynamic Superiors album. I had the opportunity to meet Tony, the lead singer of the group in the early 70's. I hate that they didn't really get a chance. Welcome to the DC area the new Dynamic Superiors. Where these guys where from, can you believe they made it to Motown and SoulTrain and never got any credit for their work. Looking forward to seeing the new group getting their props.

[bighthegreat]

Can someone post "Love me or leave it alone?"

[videoarchiveman]

leave it alone is a great song. I have it on a 45. unfortunately don't have the means to post it.

[shadowdragonzerox]

I had the joy of traveling with these guys when they opened up for Marvin Gaye in 1974. They were a great bunch of guys, and a hard act to follow on stage. Ladies Choice, (we were Marvins background singers on tour), and everyone aboard enjoyed them. They were a very special group.

[Gcburgin]

@shadowdragonzerox this is greg burgin promoter of those shows remember michael mancha my play brother. loved ladies choice. stephen hill disagreed with my decision to replace the independents with the superiors but i did it anyway and they killed it. Marvin loved them. plus they were a grand cheaper,

[nocalblkbear]

This is such rare Motown...I just typed this in search expecting to find shoe shoe shine...this was my favorite album of theirs

[macksboy87]

feel the warmth coming off the record...missing from todays music....its called real music,instruments,singers,song­s,arrangements,

[sexycaine22]

how popular was this group?

[bjazz80]

not sure but they should have been bigger in my opinion

[e37a]

Hamishblues you are the man!!!!! Everything these guys did I love!! Now, if someone could download Leave It Alone and from this album, "Feeling Mellow", life would be good!!!!

[TONIO2K8]

THIS IS ACE! Gonna give soul brother records a call very soon. Many thanks.

[jimhebsoul]

Tops!....Great Track..Brother

[herecomesmongo79]
