Good music really serves as a time stamp for your life. Just seeing that album cover makes me feel like a kid, digging through my parents' crate of music. I remember getting up for school a bit early every morning to find an album to play...this was always a favorite. Chocolate Milk, Brothers Johnson, EWF, Stevie Wonder, The Gap Band, Teddy P., LTD, The Commodores...all made waking up early in the morning a little more tolerable. Back when Treme' was just my neighborhood, not a cable tv show.

[R37R0V1N7463]

seen this lp last week... i think I might go back and get it

Does anyone remember "The Famous" or "3P's Skating Rink" on Claiborne, damn father time is real mother for ya!!

[Nawlinsfanforlife]

This was the "CUT" back in the day at St. Aug and St. Mary dances. Groove City and "There Will Never Be" by Switch coming on back to back. Fellas would not let the sister he was dancing ("slow dragging") with go, and for good reason.

[deannacausey]

Go N.O.! Lord this brings back so many memories....the lakefront, City Park, riding bikes, house parties, sock hops.....mmmmm.

[oleskool61]

I am just sitting over here chilling with my litle shorty and she had to turn me on to this cut, have to admit it has a nice smoorhe ole skoole vibe to it. Born and raised in A town and for what ever reason this song dod not come across my pass. Thanks for the post and to my shorty we grooved to this on 18 July 2010.

Your old Old skoole Master Sergeant.

[MsJazzi504]

@oleskool61

[NEXPAR]

OOOOOh Something nice that I never heard before.

[nvd2ceb4]

I always thought this was Jeffery Osbourne. This is still the cut. To bad nobody do music like this anymore. Jeez, I sound like my parents!

[nillawafers96]

"Yeah ya right" Boy, boy, boy. I remember this song. Talk about a blast from the past. Papa Smurf on FM98, would play this song for Classic slow jams and mellow moods. It was pretty much a signature song for Papa Smurf. I remember everybody at school pretty much was listening to Q93, while I was listening to "Grown Folks" music on 98. Love, love, love this song. I miss the "Old" New Orleans so much. The Big Easy Y'all!!!!

[England3234]

U may not believe me but a member of this band is my band teacher!

[classymsinkc]

I just love this song....it takes me back to childhood, my mom played it all the time...lol

[Nawlinsfanforlife]

Nothing like this cut from the late 70s. Going to St. Aug and St. Mary's Dances and getting your slow drag on. Groove City and I Call Your Name by Switch coming on back to back. Fellas was on the floor like a pack of wolves looking for that special sheep.

[MrRunawayslave]

[agoodgurl2]

I went to Booker T also, c/o 1978 'ya heard me? I live in Mid City, moved back to NOLA in 2004 and even Katrina couldn't keep me from where my heart wants to be! I am a successful product of 'Nolia projects too!

[fogcoda]

Chocolate Milk!! A New Orleans institution. I remember the parties/discos jumping, even in Kenner, Chocolate Milk, the Family Players, the late, great King Floyd and the Living Dead were in the house. I know all the Big Easy-ites remember each of these groups.

Chocolate Milk hit their stride and if the disco era didn't suck so much they might have been the biggest musical force to come out of New Orleans since Fats Domino. Damn, those were the days.

[CreoleGuh504]

i wanna go home on peniston st where i firts heard this song

[dnye918]

Uptown forever!!! What High school did you attend? I went to Booker T.

Groove City Is actually new orleans. If anyone have anything to say about it meet me on Orleans and Claiborne under the bridge across the street from Cohen Tuxedo!

[Nawlinsfanforlife]

[KoleYah]

Better yet go t the McKenzies on Gentilly and Elesian Fields and pick up a 20 piece we may get hungry...Oh Yeah I want a 2 liter peach big shot cold drank

[dnye918]

[BrittneyDominique]

[GuyJD]

I remember that place. It's the only McKenzies that sold fried chicken (Chicken In A Box).

They don't make music this good anymore. Long live Chocolate Milk and my beloved home city, New Orleans. I miss it there.

[peterpan504]

[d23haynes]

This is the jam.

[prettypearlzz]

mannnn..Call Papa Smurf and request this thing on 98.5....I'm still in the N.O. YALL!!!!!

[Qntesenchl]

I hadn't heard this song since I was a 11 or 12 years old until yesterday Sunday when it was played on 107.3 in KC. I was so excited, I told complete strangers nearby to turn their radio to the same station so they could hear it, too. (probably thought I was crazy)anyway it was fun!!!

[jwilson3rd]

f.m.98 wyld.I made some of the best slow jam tapes from mellow moods,I used to be asleep and hear a song and would jump up and press record on my stereo.That was around 1987-1991 I was a freshman in high school in 1987,at St.Amant high school,St Amant La.Those were some good times,I miss those times.

[upt123]

This is a New Orleans classic, brings back memories of late nights listening to Papa Smurf on FM 98. Can't forget the picnics at the River View in Audubon Park either...

[localcd]

lakefront ,city park and auburn park

[jlpalmer34]

Yeah' You know whats up. This was the joint.

[sirdavidsan]

I´ve just discovered them.This is class.

[randy13209]

[Buckeyecat2002]

Low rent ripp-off of EWF "Thats the Way of The World." But it sounds like a good album filler cut.
