This is one of the reasons why I hang around Youtube... no mater how old ya are... ya still can learn alot about at least one of life's greatest present... to be able to hear and enjoy music ... that gives that plus into ya life.
This is a killer tune! So glad somebody found the eoriginal recording and posted it. I woould always tell peeople that the ARS version wasn't the original but no one would listen. This song definitely inspired my sax playing and our band "Brute Force" out of Philly played it all the time. It was on of our favorite jam tunes.
I had this song on 45 .....played it out......always loved it....the Classics IV's version is great also but this one was always a favorite....thanks for posting .....
Bought this album (same cover) in 1969 two days before hitched across Canada I was 17 and I could not get this music out of my mind, It still sounds great,

I like it better then the classic 4's version way more jazzy and full of great funk!
