GENE "The Duke" CHANDLER SHOULD HAVE BEEN INDUCTED INTO THE ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME YEARS AGO !!! How he's not in ,( with over 30 chart hits, and a Grammy Hall Of Fame Inductee,singer,songwriter , producer, entrepreneur, and record executive), but one -hit wonder Percy Sledge is, BLOWS MY MIND !!!

Mm, "youth", not exactly anymore ;-)
Maybe I was a bit harsh, but It was just an impression and I dò appreciate and respect Mr. Chandler's old work a lot. In the meantime, I listened to his studio version of this song, too and I find that much more convincing!

@panniculus Good point. I cannot do four decades but Mr. Biggs can do SIX decades! Ha, top that:)

I know what "Northern Soul" means and the origins of the term but it really, really bothers me when people describe original American music as Northern Soul. Original American music is categorically NOT "Northern Soul". It is original soul. American soul.

the "duke" crushed it!!



Looks like a performance at a wedding, where the male bride is asked to the stage to perform, because that's what he secretly always wanted to do. Quite embarrassing, knowing James Brown's original and mr. Chandler should know, or be told.
