  • I kissed this 45 to bad ass Katrina! She took it all in 2005!

  • This was the first song I knew all the words to . living in San Diego Ca on Martin st

  • Like, the quintesent perfect horn break. Plenty of space....enough, but not too much, punch. 32 bars in 4/4 of perfection!!

  • I just LOVE THIS SONG,

    WHAT A FANTASTIC SONG

  • thks barbara for this song, and the many you song elsewhere. great oldie

  • Thank you! Thank you! Those golden days! YEEEEEES!

  • Excellent song!I listened to it when it came out.The trumpet solo at 1:30 is sublime.Music from the '60's is great!!!

  • She looks like Gucci Mane

  • I've been lucky enough to study with legendary jazz drummer Joe Chambers, according to him the reason all rock and roll uses the same backbeat is because of this song...

  • I love this! Been a long time! Thank you,thank you for sharing!

  • Produced by jazz saxophonist, producer and arranger Harold Battiste of New Orleans.

  • Sandra Dee Lawson.

  • Nocaro thank you for sharing such us a beautiful song love it.

  • I still have the 45 rpm

  • I hung on Barbara's voice when I was a kid and still do. It's sooo good.

  • She was from Chauvin,La. her and my mom went to school together.

  • ROCK AND ROLL AND SOUL ARE HERE TO STAY! simon4186

  • Did she go to Cohen High in New Orleans?

  • Might have been her only hit.......but what a hell of a hit it was. Great song!!!!!

  • When I first heard this song, it was over the speaker in a grocery store. It was 1973 and I saw my mom shoplift an onion.

  • @PlanTonto hahahahaha

  • in those days it was common for another record company to put out a simular sounding song.

  • It's fun to fall in love and break up when you are young you have the world ahead of you. But when you are old you are scared to break up because there might no be a next time.

  • Whenever this song comes on the radio I crank it up.

  • No more, no more

  • great stuff!

  • Frank Whalen Jr. High School (JHS 135), Murry the K, the slop all hitting me at once as I listen to this song. Love it.

  • @Annettesmusic

    Murray The "K" And the swingin soiree is NOW in session!! Oh yeah!! Listened to Murray ALL the time, and even went with my mom to The Brooklyn Fox Theatre in Brooklyn N.Y.! Saw the likes of "Little" Stevie Wonder, The Shirelles, The Temptations, Smokey Robinson & The Miracles, The Jive 5..and so on and so on! Count me as ONE lucky Lady!!

  • @toomuchmail50

    OMG yeah.  Brooklyn Fox. Me too! I saw Patty Labelle and the Bluebells there. (They sang: You'll never walk Alone" and "Danny boy". Gives me chills just thinkin' about it) And Chuck Jackson, Dionne Warwick and Dusty Springfield (got her autograph:). Good memories.

  • What a Great Oldies sound. One of the Classics. Thanks!

  • This is still a good song..Love it way back when, love it now

  • FIVE Stars...God I miss 60's Music....

  • Love it

    

  • someone plse tell me how i can aquire this album....... searched all over!!!

  • @TIMBOKIP I'm not certain you'll find this recording on a "Barbara George" album (more likely you'll find it in a compilation with other artists), but search for it at amazon.com and see what you find.

  • @TIMBOKIP if u dont have it i help u pm me :D

  • @TIMBOKIP I've seen it on a couple of New Orleans artist compilations. I believe one of them is on the Rhino label, check on eBay.

  • @TIMBOKIP  u will find it on OLDIES BUT GOODIES # 7

  • @TIMBOKIP Nocaro is very wrong, a copy of the original AFO/Sue Records album, "I Know" by the legendary Miss Barbara George is available on ebay and believe me it is worth every penny, especially for the follow-up singles, "Whip-O-Will" and "You Talk About Love." In addition and also of collectible note, there were late 78s of Barbara George pressed in the Philippines on Monument and Sue Records labels.

  • @TIMBOKIP Go to the internet and type in Amazon.com: Barbara George: Songs, Albums, Pictures, Bios

  • @TIMBOKIP Did you check with dusty groove? Contact them.

  • A #1 hit for Barbara George on the Rhythm & Blues charts. It was the 88th #1 R&B song of the Rock Era. It also hit #3 on the Top 40 charts. Her biggest hit.

  • Awsome Song thanks for the posting :D

  • just thrilling.

  • THE MUSIC SOUNDSLIKE EVERY BODY LOVES A LOVER BY THE SHIRELLES.DOES ANYONE ELSE THINK SO?

  • @Desiree50 It's pretty close...Nocaro

  • @Nocaro thank you.

  • @Desiree50 I played drums in a high school group in the 1960s that performed these two songs back-to-back and would bridge back and forth to each!

  • Also check out the lesser known "Baby Cakes" by Dee Dee Sharp on youtube. Very similar.

  • @Desiree50 Yup, i even thought it was the Shirelles

  • @Desiree50 it's the same music, but it was originally a doris day song (everybody loves a lover) in 1958..............and doris rocked it better than the shirelles!!

  • i think this is one of the "song requests" to the dj sam cooke made in having a party if im not mistaken(play that one called "i know")

  • Timeless song

  • now out of all of these people saying barbara george is their cousin i would like to know who knows her real name cause this is my grandmother and barbara was only her stage name

  • I can close my EYES and be dancing to this song in 1961, at the teen-clubs, what memories!!

  • My dad says he recorded a track with Barbara George, though he wasn't sure if it was really her or not because she was much older and had put on a lot of weight, so in the liner notes it said Barbara "I Don't Know" George-lol
