This is a well-known track from Bobby Taylor in 1968, and there's an interesting story about this group, Mary Wilson and Florence Ballard of The Supremes went to see the group at the Elegant Parlor in Vancouver, they were so impressed they told Berry Gordy and he signed them to Motown straight away, and the rest is history! Let me know if you like this one please??

  • Love this song, but your video description is wrong. I was listening to an inteview that Bobby did in Hong Kong today. He says that Mary Wilson and Florence Ballard discovered them and told Berry. He also hates Diana Ross.

  • @DetroitLives313 It just shows that stories you hear are not always correct! I had heard this years ago too, I'll correct the foreword, thanks for putting me right on this much appreciated. I wish I'd have heard that interview too, I always wonder what happened to them all too don't you? Cheers, JOHN

  • @MotownMagic1959 You're most welcome John and thank you for being so cool about it! Peace.

  • @DetroitLives313 Thanks, you are very kind. If I'd have lived in the US I reckon I would have worked for Motown I'm sure in the 60's but I live here in the UK and I do like living here too :-) JOHN
