EVERYONE SHOULD ALWAYS REMEMBER JEEP HOLLAND. HE GAVE US A2 PRODUCTIONS WHICH GAVE US A LOT OF GREAT MOTOR CITY MUSIC. HE WAS A FANTASTIC GUY WITH A GREAT BIG OLE HEART. MISS HIM AND SO SAD HE IS GONE NOW.
I saw these guys live at the Michigan State Fair Grounds ( the Mod Wedding ) and at the Auto Rama ( Cobo Hall ) back in the late sixties. Oh yes, I have that exact 45rpm record to this very day. ( 2010 ) I am sixty years old now.
when the finial story of detroit rock is written these guys need to be highly mentioned as innovators of its sound. I got this 45 single when it was released and it got much air time in the detroit-ann arbor cooridoor. you can bet bob seger,Iggy pop,ted nugent,members of mc5,src,and frost,all were influenced by this group,this sound,and this cover of respect.
Wow, this takes me back to tight pants, pointy shoes and the girls going "full blouse" in Catholic school. Thanks Rationals.

Otis did it first. But even this version came before Aretha's. Also a version by Johnny Rivers came before Aretha Franklin's

@laurog7: This version is good, but the original is by Otis Redding. These guys are not Otis.

I've got this 45 record! Love the Rationals!! I grew up in Fenton, Mi and used to see them often!

@Wehategod No, definitely not. The Rationals were and are Scott Morgan, Bill Figg, Terry Trabandt and Steve Correll.

This should have been a world-wide smash. Scott Morgan nails this as does the band.
