  • Of all the other enteries of this song, this is the only one that sounds the most like the original record. Johnny was a bandleader going back into the 1940's and helped many singers get their start including Hank Ballard, Little Ester Phillips and Gladys knight and the Pips. He was a rhythm&Blues specialist but could play all types of music. Hand Jive was a novelty record that started a dance craze. Mr. Otis was a very talented composer and musician and could sing to.

  • this IS the song that made the TONE from a Les Paul and a Fender reverb amp for ever the sound that guitar players would WANT!...

  • This must be the song that "I want candy" was inspired by, right?
