This is fantastic. I work with Clear Channel Media + Entertainment in Columbus, OH. I don't know these colleagues but I've heard their work. It must be truly gratifying to receive such an honor. CONGRATULATIONS to the Memphis Clear Channel team for a STELLAR performance and much continued success...

Great work on this video. I'm a former neighbor of yours...from the West Side. I last saw you when you were 5! My daughters are Michelle, Nicole, Brittany and Courtney. Naturally wih four daughters I'm amazed at your growth. Never heard you speak much but now singing so beautifully! Thank you f...

Also meant to mention I really, really liked when the drummers were allowed to stop playing --- yet the horns managed to keep interest in the tune without them while the drummers did their thing. This is even more awesome after several plays. Think I'll go to a game just to see the band!

This episode was so good and well-loved by CBS that it was allowed to run 15 minutes overtime and cut into "The U.S. Steel Hour" on November 6, 1957. Luckily the "Steel Hour" was a live production and all parties agreed let "Lucy" cut their episode, "The Locked Door" (with June Lockhart, Ralph Be...

Amen newarkboy22! I bought the Whispers single called "A Mother For My Children" in early 1974 and discovered this on the flip side of it. In the fall of 1974 "What More Can A Girl Ask For" was put out as the lead song with a different flip side called "Broken Home". My copy of the single is s...

I have this record but it's on a red label. Sounds just like this. It's a Bell record too I believe. I had it out on Memorial Weekend playing it. It's the original my dad bought in June 1970. He bought it without having heard it first because he liked the previous record called Didn't I. We...

I had just turned 16 in June of 1970. Heard this song on our local Top 40 FM station WNCI. Our soul station was an AM. WNCI had an amazingly diverse chart called "The Hot Half-Hundred". I still have those charts. With this song are Trying To Make A Fool Of Me-Delfonics, Maybe-Three Degrees, So...

I remember seeing this group at some small event in Columbus, OH in July 1970. WNCI, a pop station here sponsored it. We only knew the group for Give Me Just A Little More Time and the then-current You've Got Me Dangling On A String. The most memorable performances at the event to me were this s...

Nice interpolation of The Meters' "Hand Clapping Song" from 1970. Look that song up on YouTube and see if you agree. Nice work. Group has a penchant for giving you a ballad and a dance song in one recording.

Hilarious. I have to got Two and a Half Men and Everybody Loves Raymond my current LOL props, but NOTHING compares to this show, especially when Sherman Hemsley and Carroll O' Connor are together. There are many stories about how much fun those two had when working together and how they made the...

Erik might be doing a Tyler Perry on us. Maybe a big-screen debut in the works not long after?

Some episodes they feel comfortable leaving it in, sometimes not. The word aired on AITF for Lionel's engagement. It was important to the storyline and perfect shock value. Here Sanford uses it twice but it's VERY funny. It's always edited on Nick. Destroys it. It really depends on how it's used...

My my! The things you can accomplish when you have the perfect combination of passion and experience. Just an amazing and engaging production.

Found this song by accident. I bought the single "I Wrote A Simple Song" in December 1971. Flipped it over---curious as to what "Outa-Space" sounded like. I was mesmerized. It's so perfect I thought it done by computer! I didn't hear this on radio until May 1972...6 months after I bought it. ...

Actually I loved it, and I can't believe I've just heard from the artist. Thank you VERY much for your response. I was working my first job in a restaurant and worked extra hours so I could afford to buy all the music I wanted. I was on a family trip when I bought it at The Song Shop at 6th an...

It's called "Standing In The Shadows of Motown. Still haven't gotten it yet but soon I will. My wife bought me a turntable for Christmas and I put on some old Motown and stuff from the Holland-Dozier-Holland post-Motown years. You know, Chairmen Of The Board, The 8th Day, Honey Cone, Holland-...

Whoa! I remember hearing the instrumental version of this during April-May 1976 on CKLW Detroit (Windsor, Ontario Canada). I was going to Ohio State at the time and usually had to special-order records because I heard music I like on out-of-town stations at the time. I bought the record and th...

I like the camera moves 4:37 to 4:40. Kind of looks like the camera almost loses Michael for a second but quickly recovers. Always noticed that back in the day but it happened so fast. It's a little thing but it enhances his dance move at that point and it makes the video interesting overall.

I remember hearing this on "American Top 40" in the spring of 1971. This is one of those songs that's so well done it doesn't have to make sense. It's just talking yet I was mesmerized by it and bought it the next day. I think this only hit in the lower rungs of the chart, which is why AT40 wa...

I always liked the way James Brown corrected an error by the band during this recording. After JB gives his "do it to death intro" the band members inadvertently say "If you don't do it the first time...". And right on the beat (and politely) JB says "Get it!". Then you hear them change it to...

Whoops...meant to say I heard "She's Not Just Another Woman" first as 100 Proof from their "Somebody's Been Sleeping In My Bed Album" in 1970...THEN as 8th Day later around may 1971.

Thanks for posting. One of the best-kept secrets of all time. This is the flip-side of "You've Got To Crawl (Before You Walk)" by the 8th Day. I bought this song as "Free Your Mind" by the Politicians (see post for that song). Brings home other posters facts about HDH using the same musicians ...

OK, now I'M officially old here, too. When you heard this theme song between September and June, you were sick, running late, playing hooky or enjoying the Christmas break! On a school day, this was the scariest song to hear! :P
