[ThinkPinkLeah]

[DIANAROSS4EVER]

1997 was a really cool year

[JellyBean2144]

I agree nina513 and everyone else. Sinbad needs to bring these concerts back!! This was the stuff. I got HBO just for the Sinbad summer shows.

[seand67]

@JellyBean2144 I just saw her amazing episode of Unsung. The entire show is on You Tube and has all the commercials edited out.

[Nina513]

On some real ish...

Sinbad needs to bring these concerts back....this was amazing...

[seand67]

@Nina513 I agree, this is the GOOD SH*T!

[peluza2708]

Woh! I'm fan number one in my Country.

El que no baila es porque no tiene zapatos!! hahaha

[seand67]

@peluza2708 Thanks for watching and posting your comments

[AstralBooBaby]

She got the chops, stage pressence, great songs and charisma to single handedly hold a massive audience in the palms of her hands! Today stars rely on pyro-technics, hordes of back ground dancers and play-back to do half of what ECK does naturally! She is legend in my book!

[seand67]

@AstralBooBaby Thanks for your great comments & observations about what's being promoted as 'music' today

[FriarsEssence]

Thank you so much for posting........I LOVED IT!!!

YOU GO EVELYN CHAMPAGNE KING.......I LOVED YOU WHEN YOU FIRST CAME OUT, I LOVE YOU STILL!!!!!!!

[LPATWILLFILM]

@seand67 THANK YOU FOR THIS! :)

[LPATWILLFILM]

ECK IS A BEAST ON THE MIC!!!! THIS GIRL STALKS THE STAGE LIKE A GIANT!!! GON' EVELYN!!!! :) THESE "singers" of TODAY CANNOT TOUCH THIS!!!!!

[2006canna]

am crying...............and next to me my two boys marco and matteo (10 and 8). they will understand when they are bit older. grazie evelyn per la tua musica senza tempo. Ciao.

[seand67]

@2006canna wow, that's what's up. Nothing like REAL TALENT like Evelyn!

[SuperAlgerianboy]

[seand67]

@SuperAlgerianboy I guess she's someplace wearing a meat dress for attention

[lurupfv]

GREAAAT

[jinger37]

[seand67]

@5annent No disrespect taken. I agree with you about Evelyn, but this video is a great example of what makes old school music special.

[hebrewsista61]

evelyn has been my favorite singers of the early 80's. seem her 4 years ago in n.y.c. @ an ole skool dance party...she blew the roof of the ceiling! she is still sizzing performer. her voice has really matured for the better, and sounds more soulful than ever. keep up the good work grlll!!!

[tricianfred]

[BreuckelensFinest]

Wow my Mamita Killed it! Go mama...u make me want to make more babies!

[honeegrrl]

[honeegrrl]

I remember seeing this and thinking wow this song came out 10 years ago and she still sounds great.

[Deanboy2007]

ANybody who say's Rihanna can sing, compared to a girl like this, needs their head testing.

[seand67]

[seand67]

@pablobix1 Thanks and YOU'RE RIGHT

[oldschooljunkie]

Very hot performance, she has such a great energy!!! I wish I would have been there to see the whole concert! That was the bomb!

[terelon]

[haroldking]

GREAT SHE'S REALLY ONE OF THOSE 80'S DIVA'S.. I LOVE THIS SONG.. GO EVELYN CHAMPAGNE KING. I'M HAROLDKING LOL..

[feeleffect]

Clearly on the BEST Live female entertainers with an emotionally charged voice. I didn't know she was so exiting to watch!!! If she EVER comes in the Chicago area again, I've GOT TO SEE HER!!!!

[asiba2]

@MszVictoria -I was 2 years when this came out and I remembered hearing it while in the belly, I listen to it through my umbilical cord.

[enjoythevision]

there will never be another eck!!! what a talent

[zionah8]

This is the JAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[wparch]

omg!!! she looks like my sister....

[Sangria3]

Talk about show-womanship! WHAT! She puts you in the mood to get up. She commands the crowd. I remember dancing in club New York on Frenchman Street in New Orleans. A wonderful time. Small club where you knew the bartenders, no cover charge and a drink was a drink. My girl Trudy and I closed the place down and left after daylight! Whew, we were so ashame to be leaving a bar in the morning after pulling an all nighter and other were going to church!!! Boy did we party hearty...

[divacaliyahmarie]

I love this song

[LadiUneek]

Evelyn knows she ROCKED IT. This is going in my favorites!!!

[seand67]

@LadiUneek No doubt...she still has IT

[LadiUneek]

@seand67. Hey, do you have Sinbad's latest stand up? I cannot find it on youtube at all.

[seand67]

@LadiUneek No, I sure don't. Last one I piced up was 'Bell Bottoms & Afros'

[LadiUneek]

@seand67. Dude, please tell me you saw it on Comedy Central? HILARIOUS!!!!

[seand67]

@LadiUneek No, I didn't

[LadiUneek]

@seand67. Walmart has it. Just picked it up. It's called "Where U Been." His funniest yet. Check it out!!

[Rocflex]

She did come out strong though, didn't she?

[timmy841212]

One of the queens of funk. Nice mover too. Go Evelyn!

[reigncc]

when she first came out she was like 15 and in 97 she still sounded the same...great singers stand the test of time

[BlacksAreBeautiful]

A damn shame how the digital/marketing age came into music and suppressed REAL singers such as Ms. King!!!

[The096757]

@BlacksAreBeautiful

black music was ruined by black men who got into postions of power who promoted ghetto rap, race politics and light skinned black women who they thought were attractive who called everything they didn't like "gay." gay = anything not hardcore or raunchy.

there was better black music in the 70s and early 80s when makiing a good sound was more important than politics or "diversity" .

[seand67]

@The096757 "black music was ruined by black men who got into postions of power"..WRONG. White men actually run the record companies (and media) and capitalize on every NEGATIVE Black stereotypes. The days of promoting music with substance are over. See my "B.E.T. (Black Exploitation Television)" video.

[TheMidcoast1]

@The096757 Well said and did I say quote the shakespeare?

[gentleall]

@The096757 Don't forget the part we [not me specifically, just check out my channel] played in supporting these "black men in position of power".

If no one bought that trash, they would have been "REMOVED from power".

[maxday1000]

@gentleall remember robin s?....thats who she reminds me of lol.

[seand67]

@BlacksAreBeautiful Thanks, I totally agree

[asiba2]

@MszVictoria =I was 2 years old when this came out and I danced to it then.

[kingpoe1]

i was in jail in 97...

[JazzyBelle30]

I wish I could press rewind and go back and be at this concert....lol.

I need a life DVR.

Home girl sounds gr8. I love this! Grooving.

[asiba2]

@kingpoe1 how was it

[TheMidcoast1]

I remember this show Sinbad was doing these summer jam shows before Tom Joyner. Debarge and Stephanie Mills among other well known artist were on the show as well. So much fun such a family affair. Her voice still sounded nice. Thank you for sharing...

[seand67]

@TheMidcoast1 Yeah, I'm blessed to have a friend transfer these shows onto DVD. Stay tuned for more video footage on my channel.

[davionbattle]

@seand67 Hey Im willing to buy duplicate copies of the dvd's if you have them. Just reply to this message and we will go from there.

[seand67]

@davionbattle Sorry, I don't have a DVD burner

[davionbattle]

@seand67 aw man! do you you know where i can get the dvd disc set?

[ForgottenSoul700]

All those years being irrelavent made her put on the pounds!

[mizzcinnabun05]

I remember watching this on HBO when I was 10 years old..HAHA.. My parents recorded it on VHS. Best summer jam that sinbad hosted.

[FeelingBeautiful]

She can put on an awesome concert. She's cute and and dance.

[sunshine4ualways]

This video clip is awesome. She just inspired me to turn up my stage presence when I perform. She killed it!!! I love her. She is a true classic. Thank you Ms. King fir great music.

[seand67]

Right On!

[clachai]

Loved her back then, love her now ! One of the best, she's so underrated. Bring back da funk !!!

[VAPete]

[seand67]

[SidewalksOfNY315]

CLASSIC songs and performance. She kills it even more when she gets on the congos.

[asiba2]

I thought that MYSPACE had faded into oblivion

WELL THANKS !

Will do

[seand67]

No, My Space is still open & used by many musical acts. I still enjoy it from time to time. Facebook is my main space!

[asiba2]

yeah I know about the CD

Just wondering where she is at this very moment.

She is well-loved here in Barbados and has inspired many a performer here in lovely BARBADOS----where the stars shine because there are almost always blue skies.

[seand67]

Check her page on My Space...I'm sure you'll find out where she is

[asiba2]

what are you doing now Evelyn ?

You must come to Barbados

We love you down here in BARBADOS ---BIRTH PLACE of RIHANNA---------

Come and see where the talent grows-BARBADOS -the hottest place on earth musically -

Sun and Sea and 365 days of Sunshine

Serena Williams was just here and she loved it so much, she cant wait to come again.

This is ASIBA-THE BUFFALO SOLDIER

[seand67]

[SgtAnt08]

[Pugartes]

[asiba2]

OH YOU KNOW THIS ONE

YOW !

HEY WE CAN DO THIS FOR HBO -we are on TV

her speaking is as sweet as her singing

[SgtAnt08]

evelyn champagne sings better live than on the radio she is wonderful

[choirqueen202]

I'm only 17, and my generation of youths today don't even know what this is. I have enough sense to know that the don't make music like this anymore. This is really the goiod stuff. Just wish that some of the other younger ones like myslef could appreciate good music like this. I mean look at her! She went up there and burned the stage up the way that NO ONE of today could do!

[hmsheppard]

Praise God for our youth! You go, baby girl! I'm 44, and was lucky enough to be a teenager when Champagne and others were doing their thing. It warms my heart to read what you wrote. You're gonna be alright!

[choirqueen202]

Well, thank you. I do Peaise God for my youth, as well as good music like this. This was the music that was meant for us to have a good time. Not talking about violence, and sex, but music that actually has meaning! But you are correct. I belive that all praise goes to God. You have a great day ma'am/sir.

[bgoldrock]

It's so nice to read posts like yours! Evelyn was (still is) incredible. I love her music and the music from that era (my generation)....It's nice to see you giving props to the best! Wish music could get this good again....

[lordcron]

Man! You made me watch this video again! LOL!

The woman is a beast on that stage! She didn't even want to stop at the end. They don't make them like that anymore! Wow!

What a woman!

[asiba2]

"OH You know this one "  I love how she says those words.

eyio !!!!

[slimm66]

Damn Champnage Get it Girl!!! Fantastic performance!!!

[asiba2]

I like how she says "we are on TV'

[klmbaby4]

Classic performance. The way it should be done!!!

[realrapskillz]

This looks AMAZING..WHY WASN'T I THERE...lol...I'd have LOVED IT ...WHAT AN AMAZING VIBE ...CLASSIC x

[yurbuddy]

That band is goin' thu freak off!!

[lordcron]

I so love a singer that can dance to the music they make without professional dancers teaching them. With her you know she's a natural dancer.

[julioigna71]

amazing!!

[skl007]

Believe it or not, Evelyn Champaine King was so big in the Eighties South Africa! Sbu, Durban

[derin111]

Y'know...I was a teenager when these tracks were first released. I don't think my generation really appreciated just how good this was? I mean this is just amazing to hear again now!?

And to see her do it live! Thank you so much for posting!

I need to dig all my vinyl out!

[ghtslaugh]

A groovin great time !!!

[AnnaMaeBullock]

Why only three songs to her set? Kill the director!

[themightycelestial]

Shame is one of THE BADDEST dance tunes ever!

[nupowr]

Damn she still got it AMAZING

[6librascales9]

One of the baddest women out there that can sing and dance and play the hell outta them bongo's all the while her voice never cracks or sounds winded...I've seen her back in the day when she was making her debut and let me tell u she tore it up here in (Phoenix AZ) EVER TIME, i would not want to be the following act...she is that damn good. I think she would put some of these new so called acts (and thats just what they are acts not artist/ musicians) to shame lol...Evelyn has it all.

[LPATWILLFILM]

THIS GIRL IS BAAAAAAAAAAADDDDDDDD!!!!!!!!

These "little girls" so-called "singers" of today... Need to go to school and let MS. EVELYN teach em how to SANG!

[dreadtodred]

she can bark,peace!!

[buttlikewat]

I love this woman, grew up on this real music rite here!

[bigman9099]

great live performer. I saw her at the Apollo in NY in like '88 and she killed it. Lover her voice.

[KokoBelle0206]

On 3:43 and 4:26 that is Miss Jones from Hot 97 (New York Radio Station) And Dougie Fresh. She mentioned in her Book that they went to Aruba together.

She looked fabulous!!

[KokoBelle0206]

That is Miss Jones in the morning from Hot 97 with Dougie Fresh on 3:43. She mentioned that they went to Aruba together in her book. She looked fabulous!

This is a really nice video! Thanks for posting.

[ckgohil]

Good old and sweet! Always enjoyed listening to Evelyn's songs. Excellent performance! Thanks for posting :)

[BBBYpsi]

man oh man I miss this kind of music. Brings back my roller skating days. No one today can perform like this. She gets the audience involved. I miss those sinbad summer jams they were the best.

[spyderj1999]

I saw her this same year (1997) in Vegas at an Old School Concert and SHE ROCKED THE HOUSE!!! Just like luvmyboba said, she did the DAMN THING!!

[iluvmyboba]

ECK is what a call a professional entertainer. She was workin' that stage like nobody's business. Singer/Dancer/Performer extraordinare.

[choirqueen202]

Well said, and so true.

[pbf19]

WOW, true singing, sounds like the record. Love it! great performance

[iluvmyboba]

This was my favorite Sinbad Soul show!!!!!!!!

Evelyn Champayne King is the baddest female vocalist on this planet!!! SHE IS A SANGER!!!She is definitely in my top 10 of R&B female Sangers. I always admired the bass in her voice. Rich, deep vocals like that are hard to come by in this day and time. Evelyn Champayne King's music is timeless!!!!!!! I truly love her.

[lloydpopp13]

IM 24 AND THIS IS DA BOMB!!

[albtheoriginal]

i love this women she still got moves on stage i bet ff too if you knw what i mean

[MixerX666]
