the beatles never played the uptown.

[2020VEG]

Yes that was an error, we'll fix in the final project thanks :)

I grew up in Philly in the 60's and remember hearing Georgie Woods on both WDAS and WHAT. I also remember going to the Uptown Theater with my aunt Geneva and her friends and being lifted onto the stage by Jackie Wilson during one of his shows at the Uptown. I wish I had a camera and took pictures of this historic palace of black music. Attended Mercy Interparochial Educational Center and our bus drove past the theater on the way to and from school.

WOW!! This man was one of my heroes growing up in Philly. God, I miss him and all the other great DJ's like him - Sonny Hopson, Butterball Tamburro, Lloyd Fatman, Doug "Jocko" Henderson.....I miss all those guys. They were real movers and shakers. Not just playing the computerized playlist and go home. These guys - especially Georgie Woods - got in there and got his hands dirty helping out in the civil rights movement.

[dggd]

This is so wonderful, and great and fitting tribute to Georgie Woods! I commend you for it! So many unsung heroes, that newer generations need to know about! Glad there are those that never forgot the greatness of so many.

[L78lancer]

Most people don't realize how deeply involved he was in politics and civil rights in Philly, aside from having his own tv show. He is a true icon.

@LADYINLAKEWORTH I remember FAther Devine. I used to go to his mansion on the weekends for his free dinner and a tour of the most fantastic grounds you ever seen. I went there regularly in the 60's. A white jewish girl at the Uptown??? OMG I would have loved to see that. I never seen a white person at the Uptown, other than the Magnificent Men. You go girl!!!!!!!!

[imbees2]

I remember Jocko, Sonny, Lloyd and Butterball and Mary Williams. The only Caucasian group I remember that performed at the Uptown were the Magnificent Men and they tore the set UP!! BIG TIME. I have loved them ever since. The audience loved them. And that was a hard audience to win over. We were the "poor man's Uptown", LOL.

[imbees2]

Georgie Woods was DA BOMB. I used to go to the uptown as a young teenager, by myself, if none of my friends would go with me to see the Motor Town Revue. You could see Smoky and the Miracles, the Four Tops, Martha and the Vandellas, Sam and Dave all on the same bill. I'd get there for the first show at 12:00 and stay until the last show, watch all the acts for 3 shows. I couldn't get enough.

@megachews

I know...right. I knew of Georgie Woods as a personality, but not to this level of information i'm reading and viewing on this vid short. All I really knew was Georgie Woods BBQ Chips (they were bump'N!). But this documentary film is historically profound. I want to see and share this when and if it does.

[CharlesCharles63]

With respect to the great Georgie Woods, perhaps you would correct the spelling of the word "beginnings" in your intro....

[moormagic1]

The spirit of Georgie Woods needs to return to the airwaves. We knew what was going on in our community because of Georgie. Listening to him on the radio, he would constantly drop some knowledge then go into the B side of Smokey's song. Ashe Georgie Woods the Guy With The Goods.

WHAT EVER BECAME OF THE MOVIE?!

Georgie Woods was the greatest DJ to come out of Philly. Thank you Joshua for taking the time to remember this Legend of a man. Many of the artists who later became legends themselves owe GW a debt of gratitude. R.I.P Mr Woods.
