Just in case you didn't know, the owner of this channel, mosogotam, whose real name is John Perrone, sadly passed away April 5, 2020 from COVID-19. He was an absolute genius for this and all the other wonderful tracks he created. May he rest in peace.

....I have to concur ..... When I lived in Vegas a friend of mine lived down the street from her brother( in the same neighborhood) and years earlier I had met her and her brother... they actually came into a place where I worked ,- we did their dry cleaning it was a very high-end dry cleaning place- the nicest people you would ever want to meet ....Real genuine , kind ... it was not an act and her brother ( Bubba ) actually had a barbecue at his house for some of the neighbors and my friend was invited and he took me and they were beautiful, gracious people.... you all have no idea. Impressed and pleased that he and Gldys are still performing on occasion, and he is her Manager.

Man were they GREAT! Super GREAT! I also got to see Cab Calloway introduced to the audience during the concert. He was so handsome dressed in a White Tuxedo! Also the great Hugh Masekela was fantastic with his song "Grazing In The Grass "! A fantastic show!

Wow, What a great extended version of this song!. I won a case of Corona beer on a bet about this song about 10 years ago. Me and some friends were watching football but listening to a classic rock X-M station , and the Credence Clearwater version was playing and Sammy Meli said that he likes this version, the original the best. And I told him that John Fogherty didn't write this song, Norman Whitfield from the Motown camp did. He was sure that John wrote it and we debated about it for 20 mins. So I bet him a Quart of Jack Daniels if he was right and a case of Coronas if I was right. So the next week we had football night at my place and we googled it. The Coronas sure tasted good that night. Norman sure made a difference in this world. RIP Brother. Paz Y Amor
