Barbara and the Browns - I Don't Want to Have to Wait

Very, very soulful record from Memphis family group Barbara & the Browns - Brown being the family name.
A record that should be better known - it reminds me of the Etta James classic I'd Rather go Blind. It's in that class.

I'm one of the nephews my last name is Brown from Memphis, could you Please post Big Party?

[bluesoulsound]

I would like to but Youtube won't let me - Warner have started to enforce their copyrights and that includes most of the Stax catalog.

Nice to hear from you anyway.

[willowrunner]

hmmm , so Warner owns Stax catalog? , My father wrote this song, very interesting. What about The 12th of Never?

[bluesoulsound]

The Johnny Mathis tune? I haven't heard Barbara & the Browns do that - I only know a few of their records.

Greetings from Yorkshire! Thank you Barbara for such a great song, I prefer this version over James & Bobby Purify's. Barbara's was released a year earlier, in1966. Incidentally, my Mum's sister is called Barbara Brown, Sleep with the Angels x
