the generals grammy award for the song patches was sold to american pawn stars, I watch the episode other night

[Mr192259]

So sorry to hear the General has passed on - I was 11 in 72 and recall hearing this on Radio one and absolutely loving it. To hear it again brings tears to the eyes. Absolutely love it and a great song for my funeral. Songs in those days were about love and full of hope for the world, which is often in contrast to the charts of today.

So glad I grew up when I did with such beautiful music. Remember -Radio Caroline continues 2011

[rockandrollmcdonalds]

I listen to everything from folk to metal, but chairmen of the board were a great band. Get their two disc greatest hits album, i ordered it cuz i liked the song give me a little more time, but their are alot of great songs on that album that i didnt know about before A little more time Dangling on a string Ill come crawling patches bless you a building of love all we need is understanding elmo james im on my way to a better place let me down easy and more

[akikintheteeth]

When I go to meet my maker, this has to be one of the songs played at my funeral lol!!

[bean9seventy]

they could blow the world up and rebuild it ,,,, but ,, they will never be able to bring back those times ,,,,, 

[cloughey1]

great song from 1972, one of my all time favourites, bring back the 70s music, most of todays music is rubbish.

[alneal100]

This was popular in the UK, at Christmas of 1973

[jollywigs]

Bosh! Of a certain age and inclination this would seem the perfect recording to jump off the chair! It's fabulous!

[soln4suhreborn]

RIP General Norman Johnson.

"Gold Forever" indeed!!!

[vevejay]

Just the greatest ever Chairman of the Board song brilliant. This takes me back to the dance halls.

[kopynd]

great group

[PonytailRuth]

This song is just so emotional, especially now that the General has actually gone to a better place. Yet another sad loss from the super talented world of music.

[bjb8847656]

babaloula is so right - it is getting very dsad that some greats are no longer with us - The general was a great!

[babaloula]

A 'better place': Soul heaven with General Johnson, Levi Stubbs, Solomon Burke, Michael Jackson, Billy Preston, Marvin Gaye and all the other great artists that have passed on there. How much emptier our lives would have been without their music. Bless you.

[MrStablelad]

This song is very apt for Our SAD LOSS

THE BEST at the TIME & his MUSIC LIVES ON

GOD BLESS YOU GENERAL

THANL YOU

I am very sad to hear about General Johnson , for a young Brit in the early 70's he was inspiring , their music was brilliant - and still is !
