FRANK WILLIAM'S ROCKETEERS - YOU GOT TO BE A MAN
As the launching pad for future soul/ funk star Little Beaver, this Miami group laid down some seriously funky soul on this side, which was picked up by a tiny indie for national distribution on the legendary Phil-LA Of Soul records.
This is the type of record that I like to say as little as possible and just let the grooves do the talking. AMAZING stuff indeed.
from 1967...

Nice one Derek. There's a great version of this by Helen Smith as well.. also on Phil L.A. of Soul.
Cheers,
Dave
That's a great cut. I heard it some time ago, but didn't know what it was until now. Thanks for the listen. It goes on my want list for sure.
Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant. So good, Prince had to seriously plagiarise it, Tom Jones had to cover it and make it sound vaguely like this, but still not as good.
