I'll never forget my first impression of this track, which was "What is this Smokey Robinson JAM that I've never heard???". Yeah, Bob Brady was probably the closest cat out there in vocal sound to Smokey, and it was another mindblower to find out that the dude is white!
The group was from Baltimore, and had a huge following throughout the Maryland/ Washington DC area.
Although they were a year late to the Love-In, this track certainly does inspire the thought of unity between all; brothers and sisters of any creed and color united through music! And I can most certainly dig THAT.
from 1968...

Yeah, I discovered Bob Brady just a few months back when someone gave me an MP3 of his "I Stand Rejected". I just couldn't understand how someone thought he could establish a career by sounding EXACTLY like another famous singer. He does a damn good job though!
sounds like a reworking of going to a go go.
Ral Donner had a decent career . . . 4 Top 40 hits . . .and he sounded exactly like Elvis. So it was possible.
