Saw Joey last week sing "What Kind Of Love Is This" at Our Lady of Mount Virgin Italian Feast in Garfield w/ David Brigatti & Bobby Valli plus Tommy Mara. And would ya believe it - Passaic, NJ is actually NAMING a city street after this R&R "Peppermint Twist" living legend! All I can say is - it's about time! ... Well, I feel like a man in outer space...
I remember this great song. It showed me Joey Dee & The Starlighters were much more than the Pepermint Twist. Is That David Brigatti singing lead? Doesn't sound like him.
@bobrich1QEDJ5 Good question! I know Joey sang "I Lost My Baby" & "Keep Your Mind On What Your Doing" I would have to go with Joey singing this, the voice sounds the same. I believe it was just around this time David left the group and his brother Eddie Brigatti joined them. GUNNISONDUDE "Terri" is a member from the Hi-Fives, perhaps he may know?
A little-heard oldie You hit the nail right on the head with that. When this was 1st released the played it everyday, then all of a sudden it stopped. I've never heard it since. I Lost My Baby was the same way, can't figure. By the way, your very welcome!
this is one of those good feeling songs

I like the lyrics mostly....i don't think much of the arrangement all these years later. Loved it as a kid....way back when.

Wow! Never heard this oldie before! I noticed on the label you have pictured that Johnny Nash of I Can See Clearly Now fame wrote this! Nice song!

This obviously wasn't nearly as popular as "Peppermint Twist" and "Shout," but in my opinion, it was the group's best recording.

YES!!!! "group's best recording" Although, I do love Face Of An Angel, however, no arguement from me! Thank you!

The song did pretty well in the NYC area. I don't know if it made it nationally.

It did very well in RI also, just never heard it afterwards?
