Yes, I still have the newspaper clipping somewhere, my Grandmother saved it for me, we used to listen to
music together sometimes and she knew that I really liked him.

Mine too!

A love this version from The Commitments, one of my favorite movies of all time. Nothing like an ugly, overfed Scottish singer belting out some serious R&B:

Get up and dance, y’all. Shake it out! Have some fun despite these un-fun times:



tl;dr for the non-musically-inclined:

Whether it's rock and roll or old soul, it don't matter
Disco, calypso, it don't matter
Suit and tie or tie-dye, it don't matter
Snake skins, Timberlands, it don't matter

Tight fade or long braid, it don't matter
Red head or brunette, it don't matter
Break dance, slam dance, it don't matter
Do the jerk until it hurts

Ain't nothin' wrong with that
(I'm tellin' you)
Ain't nothin' wrong with that
(I'm tellin' you)
Ain't nothin' wrong with that
Hey!

East coast or west coast, it don't matter
Down south or up north, it don't matter
Hollywood or in the hood, it don't matter
Either way, it's all good, it don't matter

Block party, frat party, it don't matter
Backyard or boulevard, it don't matter
Red, yellow, black or white, it don't matter
We all gettin' down tonight

Ain't nothin' wrong with that
(I'm tellin' you)
Ain't nothin' wrong with that
(I'm tellin' you)
Ain't nothin' wrong with that
(I'm tellin' you)
Ain't nothin' wrong with that

Shake it, shake it, shake it
Shake it, shake it, shake it
Shake it, shake it, shake it
(Like this?)
Shake it, shake it, shake it
Shake it, shake it, shake it
Shake it, shake it, shake it
Shake it, shake it, shake it
Shake it, shake it, shake it

I don't know but I've been told
When the music gets down in your soul
It makes you want to lose control
And there

Ain't nothin' wrong with that
(I'm tellin' you)
Ain't nothin' wrong with that
(I'm tellin' you)
Ain't nothin' wrong with that
(Go 'head and move!)
Ain't nothin' wrong with that
(Ain't nothin' wrong with that)

Ain't nothin' wrong with that
(Hollywood or in the hood, I'm tellin' you)
Ain't nothin' wrong with that
(Suit and tie or tie-dye, I'm tellin' you)
Ain't nothin' wrong

It don't matter
(Get loose!)
It don't matter
(Let it go)
It don't matter
(Let it go)
It don't matter

If you wanna let it go, it don't matter
(Let it go)
Just tryin' to let you know that it don't matter

Memphis did so much for music! Muscle Shoals gets a close second.

and Macon. The success that Phil Walden had with Otis and couple of other acts is what built Capricorn. I can't imagine what kind of stuff Otis and Duane Allman could've done together with the players from Grinderswitch backing them up.
