I’m 63 white woman, this is the music our mom raised us 6 kids on, & we still love it. Our mom was a cool mom, not listening to old shit music. She also got my oldest son to love it since he was a kid, he got her record collection. Love watching Soul Train, after Bandstand on Saturdays. I’m also a classic rock lover, Led Zeppelin, the greatest music is from the 60’s & 70’s hands down.
Me too I’m 65 ww and my house was filled with the best. Mom loved Louis Armstrong,Ella ,Miles Davis , The Mills Brothers,we had Motown ,Jazz,Rock Rockabilly,Funk .With 9 kids every genre was represented. The front room walls were lined with albums. ☮️
@@AP-gb3eh my mom took us to see several in concert, one I definitely remember was Cab Calloway, loved seeing all. Your family & mine had great upbringings, we were very lucky, thanks for sharing your story.
TOTALLY agree!
I definitely appreciate the fact that my mom (ww) raised me to love music of all genres & dancing. I grew up on Nat King Cole, Sam Cook, The Supremes... Aretha Franklin. We really had great music to grow up with!!
@@deborahharper3126 yes we sure did.
Frank Sinatra described Rawls as having “the classiest singing and silkiest chops in the singing game.”
From the man who made his name on "classy" and "silky", he knew of what he spoke. For all that people call Steve Perry "The Voice", that name always conjures Rawls' voice for me. He just had a resonance and richness that stands atop the many fantastic baritones and basses of the era. Speaking of which, I really miss that. It seems like through the 80s, deeper male voices were pushed out of the spotlight in music.
I’m 69, you’re watching television programs. If you want to talk about what we were listening to it was everything. By the way, I’m white. When I came home from school, I was listening to Motown , Southern rock, straight rock ‘n’ roll,. It was all on the charts, and we listened to everything and loved it all!!!!!!!.To this day 90% of what I listen to is mid 60s to mid 70s. The greatest 10 years of music.EVER!
Soullllllll Train !!!! Loved that show,
Better than American Bandstand !!!!😘
Truer words were never spake!
I am 69 and white. I love Lou Rawls...then and now.
Everyone enjoyed dancing back then. It was just good clean fun...
Soul Train was understood as a black program and EVERYBODY was cool with that. Me and my siblings (white children) grew up watching Soul Train every Saturday afternoon. We were fans of the show and we didn't care about the lack of diversity. The name of the show told us what we were getting when we tuned in every weekend. It became a fond memory of our collective childhood! About 12 years ago, I took acting classes in New Orleans and became close friends with an actress who danced on Soul Train when she was younger. It made me love her even more.
The cool thing is back then NOBODY cared what color someone was. Nobody cared what someone's "sexual kinks" were. (Example: Lou Reed, walk on the Wild side)
@@billboth6572 That’s not true at all. There was plenty of discrimination for racial and other reasons.
Saturday had to include SOUL TRAIN💥💥💥💥💥
im white, watched it every week, music is universal.
Lou's voice was pure silk
Yeah it was
Rich silk...the best you can buy.
Love Lou Rawls. His voice was phenominal. I love Lady Love
Oh yeah, that's a great one!
Best version of Little Drummer Boy out there. I love when Xmas comes around to listen to it.
Also sang with late great sam Cooke, I believe break it to me gently,early sixties classic.😊
Otis redding “sitting on the dock of the bay” is a must listen
Johnny Mathis is a must listen to as well. Us old folks got exposed to these awesome singers, rock, R and B, disco, funk, singer songwriters, metal and southern rock all in one decade.
The Twelfth Of Never
69 yr old white woman here, AND you could NOT be more wrong. This song was 1976 and the Disco era. Lou Rawls was SMOOTH, and everyone was digging him. There was NO race and discrimination during that time. Either you had "IT" OR you didn't. Lou Rawls did! We all were out there dancing to the groove every weekend, and skin color did not matter.
Exactly!! I'm 56
Back around 1980, Rawls had a sold-out concert in Tokyo. He knew that the military people couldn't afford the tickets, so he and his enterage took a trip down to Yokosuka Navy base the morning of his concert, threw together an impromptu concert in the small public open area for the sailors at lunchtime. Who does that! Most artists would have been spending the whole day setting up and practicing for the big show.
'Me and Mrs Jones' by Billy Paul, would probably rock your world as well, the things they sang about back in the day were quite dicey 😉🤣 Another classic!
I’m a 57 year old white woman and Lou Rawls is ALWAYS on my playlist. And Luther, Marvin, the Temptations…it’s a long list, lol.
Lou appeared in the Blues Brothers 2000 movie as a member of the Louisiana Gator Boys band who are definitely worth watching because every single member of the band is an actual musical legend: Jeff Baxter, Gary US Bonds, Eric Clapton, Clarence Clemons, Jack DeJohnette, Bo Diddley, John Faddis, Isaac Hayes, Dr. John, BB King, Charles Musselwhite, Billy Preston, Koko Taylor, and more.
BB2k was a great movie! So packed with talented musicians. I also really liked Jonny Lang during the 634-5789 song. I'm from the hometown of Cab Calloway which I always thought was cool.
Quite a group!
That's a voice and a singer that did some love making from this song. "Oh Yeaaaaahhh"
Babies were conceived in the making of this song !!!!!!! 🥰
Lou was big back in my high school days. Good observation about diversity. Soul Train was an important counter to American Bandstand. The Midnight Special came along and brought everyone to the same party. 😉
All three were fire!🔥
Lou is amazing!Love me some Barry White as well...The velvet teddy bear!🎙🎶
I mise classic R&B and soul.. George Benson, Teddy Pendergrass, Marvin Gaye, Peabo Bryson, Jeffrey Osbourne, AL Green and many more.. please bring back this beautiful music.😢
Barry White, Never never gonna give ya up! Oh yeah!
What a voice. This song was ubiquitous when it came out. It got play time on literally every type of radio station. Plus, he did the TV tour, you were almost guaranteed to see him on Sunday prime time TV for a few months. Great song.
62 here, graduated HS in 79. We just never knew how great we had it. It was just turn on the radio and it was good stuff all day every day. We didn't really care what people wanted to call the kind of music, we liked it all. The two Saturday shows most of us watched were American Bandstand and Soul Train. The stations knew we wanted to see both, so they never scheduled them at the same time, one would be on at 10, the other 11 (or something similar) But the smoothest man in the room was always Don Cornelius (RIP)
We didn’t segregate the industries segregated. We were finding each other with the music. It was incredible! Our parents may have had a problem, and some hard-hearted unknowing people but man, we had a blast! Give a reaction to Otis Redding, ‘sittin on the dock of the bay’. Dayan!
THE ABSOLUTE GOAT!!! CANT FUCK WITH HIM AT ALL.
When I was living in Hawaii I got to see him perform with the Honolulu Orchestra.
I cried a little at the love and admiration he inspires. ABSOLUTE CLASS!
Just because us white folks weren't on Soul Train doesn't mean we weren't listening to Lou Rawls & digging this sound! 😉 😊 I grew up an hour south of Motown, so black artists either produced or artistically influenced a whole lot of what I listened to from a young age. And I know I'm not alone in that. Those were great times for music!
A legend. ❤❤❤❤❤
❤Lou Rawls...smooth voice, great smile. Timeless songs❤
Nobody is better than Mr. Smooth.
Consider going down the Teddy Pendergrass rabbit hole, i have a feeling you'll thoroughly enjoy his material.
How about his personal life? Oh ,that's another podcast...
Everyone
Loved Lou
He actually would smile when he sang !!!!!
I loved him 🎶 🎤🥰😘
The 60's ; 70's & 80's music and artist were GOLDEN!
I too am remembering my younger years and listening to Lou Rawls. Anyone on here remember seeing Lou Rawls guest appearence on the western sitcom...The Big Valley? He is quite the actor too. He was hired by the Barkleys to work on their ranch. On a cattle drive while they were camping one night and all the men were gathered around the fire and beyond, Lou Rawl's character broke out singing "Swing Low Sweet Chariot" and it was beautiful. I do believe you can find that clip on you tube.
There's nothing better than this cut heard it when I was 7. Now I'm 58 and love it more❤️. .R.I.P. Daddy, who introduced me to Lou Rawls in The pool hall on California and Chicago Ave. Back in the 70's
Little trivia, before Lou Rawls hit it big, he sang the Budweiser theme.
I have ALWAYS LOVED LOU RAUL'S VOICE. That deep tone at the beginning, gets me every time. Such a sexy voice. I listened to this as a kid. Thank you for sharing this with us 😊❤🎉
Lou Rawls had a very distinctive voice, one of the best in R&B; today he could still hold his own. There's only one word to describe Rawls: Smoothe!
I think this is the most upbeat, grooviest breakup song ever. He doesn't beg. He doesn't gloat nasty or wish her ill. He just says it with a BIG ole smile and that magic voice: You'll never find ... Yeah, I believe him. 🤣
Lou Rawls also was the second vocal on Sam Cooke's classic Bring It On Home To Me.
He has one of those voices that you instantly know who is sing. Smooth dude back in the that.
We also were raised watching Soul Train. Didn't matter if the performers were black, white, red, yellow. All music was good back then. Check out Joe Tex and his song "Ain't Gonna Bump No More (with no big fat woman)". I think you will like it.
I loved Soul Train. I learned to dance watching. I learned to love diverse music watching. So much better than American Bandstand.
My husband (R.I.P.) had a beautiful baritone voice and sounded just like Lou Rawls. Whenever a Lou Rawls song came on the radio, our daughter would say “Why is that man singing my Daddy’s song?” So anytime I hear Lou Rawls, I think of that. Great memories. He had some great hits including Lady Love, Dead End Street and many more. He sold more than 40 million records. In his later years he hosted a very successful annual fundraiser for the United Negro College Fund, raising millions. Thanks for reacting to the great Lou Rawls. 👏👏👏🥰
Such a great man and vocalist. He started out in the late 1950s. I have several of his cd's, live performances. His Tobacco Road is iconic. You'll hear his voice singing with Sam Cooke, too. Lou Rawls did a lot of work fundraising for United Negro College Fund as well. Stormy Monday is another great one from him.
Met Lou Rawls once. Fantastic human being, amazing voice. ❤❤❤❤
The immortal Lou Rawls! I believe he was a jazz singer. That voice is just awesome!
I am 65 grew up on this music, soul Train brother!!!!! Classic
Listened to Soul hands down 68 yr. Old Woman STILL Jamming 💯💗✨🙏✨& White. Best Music ever
Lou Rawls and Soul Train, AWESOME!
One of the most beautiful voices ever!
I had the honor of meeting Mr. Rawls in '75. Just as cool and smooth backstage as on stage.
One of my all-time favorites. This is one of those special song/artist moments. NOONE should sing this but this man.
Awesome Choice
That's some baby making music.
My Mom met Lou Rawls in the elevator in the Pink Palace Hotel the night she arrived in Hawaii and waiting for our Dad to leave Vietnam for one week of R&R with our Mom , the year was 1969. Rest in Peace to my parents. My Sister in Law, Sheila who lives in Greensboro, NC said this is her favorite song. I loved this song too ! ….and I loved Soul Train ! The 1970’s and 80’s were about to be truly Amazing musically. ❤ The 1980’s became intergrated and it was a great decade. I was a nurse in the military and met my husband in Germany who was also in the US Army.
Lou’s unison vocals on Sam Cooke’s “Bring It On Home To Me” are AWESOME! One of the best soul songs ever recorded!!
He was a badass cowboy on an episode of The Big Valley.
"Ain't a horse that can't be rode", a line from that episode. I have not seen it since I was a teen, but still remember him in that show. He also sang around the campfire with one of the brothers. I can't remember his name.
@@kathrynstafford7099 Nick liked him, Heath, Jarrod and a younger brother.
@JAMESMOORE-gq4vv I was in love with Heath, the Million Dollar Man. Yep, Nick that is it.
I fell in love with Lou when I was a kid watching Bananza he was singing Sweet Chariot it was beautiful.
Love this song. Lou Rawls has such a unique voice and this is one of his best. Absolutely mesmerizing.
68 year old white Brit and grew up on these songs it was all about the voice with us,Lou, Sam Cooke,Jackie Wilson and my mums favourite Danny Williams we listened to Motown and soul still do
Yes! This song is fantastic... and now you need to listen to another of his fantastic songs, called "Natural Man" from 1971.
I definitely remember waiting for Soul Train every Saturday, and I remember this show! I love Lou Rawls voice!
We didn't really have to go to concerts back in the day because musicians were always performing on tv..❤❤
It's possibly been decades since I last heard this. I still know all the words! I have to give credit to my older brother, whose favorite singer was Clyde McPhatter, for sharing all the good music with me.
Oh my!!! Every woman I know melts at this song! Timeless! And this white kid used to watch Soul Train and dance!!!😽🎶
Gosh this brings back soooo many memories of my childhood Saturdays. Cartoons, American Bandstand and Soul Train. I’m white and 55. Soul Train was wonderful and I loved watching them dance. His voice is just human velvet.
LOU voice is smooth great song
Loved Lou Rawls, smooth voice, when he wasn’t singing, he was smiling 😘
Lucky to meet this guy in Chicago, back in the 1980s. What a mellow, smooth sound (and a nice man).
Lou is just the smoothest dude around ❤
You've got to hear "Natural Man". To me, it's his BEST!
Yes. The best!
more babies convinced to Lou and LUTHER VANDROSS!!! OMG BP do Luther.. you and your wife will have a few songs from him
HOW DARE YOU NOT MENTION AL GREEN AMD BARRY WHITE!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@vinniewheeler5441 Oh wow!!! Barry White will blow him away. My husband proposed with a Barry White song in the background.
@@tupelohoney622 my moms ex boyfriend taught me about the ladies then my dad found out I was learning music from him and HOT BIG MAD CUZ MY DAD WAS THE BIGGEST DJ IN BOSTON SO HE STARTED SHOWIMG UP TO PICK ME UP TO TEACH ME MUSIC AMD MUSIC THEORY. LOLOLOLOL BUT Seeing my moms eyes when her man would put in any one of those brothers and then seeing him extend his arm and watching her always blush and I’d watch them dance TO THE MUSIC HE TAUGHT ME TO PLAY WAS A REALLY COOL FEELING. 😂😂😂🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🥰🥰🥰 Do you remember what song??? IT WAS “I CANT GET ENOUGH OF YOUR LOVE BABE” WASNT IT???? 🤞 🤞🤞🤞🤞 lol
@vinniewheeler5441 You're the First, the Last, My Everything. But it could have been "Can't Get Enough," just as easily! His music sealed the deal; our 43rd anniversary is next month, and we are still dancing to Barry White, even in the kitchen.
@@tupelohoney622 42yrs!!! OMG THATS WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT!!!! That makes me so happy. GOD BLESS YOU DARLING AND LET THE MUSIC HELP KEEP THAT LOVE GOING STRONG. AS A DJ I SEEN IT BREAK PPL DOWN INTO TEARS AND THEN I PLAY A DIFFERENT SONG AND THEY COMPLETELY FORGET ABOUT THE LAST SONG SO MUSIC AS AN “EMOTIONAL TOO” that as a DJ I can manipulate your feelings into dancing or clearing the floor to “Make ppl order drinks. Lolol that’s a secret 🤫. Lol or IF INSEE A COUPLE FIGHTING I’ll pull the man to the side and ask him what I can play to melt her heart for you and stop a fight between a couple or stop a whole bar fight. Lolol it’s hard to fight when I play the chipmunks Christmas songs without feeling stupid. Loloool so that’s how I’ve learned to use music for different situations.
I am glad you enjoyed this timeless music. They have a way of awakening your enotions. Sometimes, it can make me cry , many other times, I put them on to help me get through tough times.
They were always a different band than heavy rock, but they were/ are beautiful. They were there since my preteens and up to today. Justin Hayward, the singer guitarist and their lyrics, hold many memories and were always current
and meaningful, can transport you anywhere .
Yep - playlist worthy! My parents and I used to stay up to watch Soul Train on Saturday nights at 11:30 or midnight(?) back in the early 70s. We’re white and we loved it! We listened to all sorts of music. It was a sad day when Lou Rawls passed. What a voice.
I love Lou Rawls, this was one of my favorite songs when I was a Junior in high school. His voice is like liquid gold. Soul Train, Solid Gold and Midnight Special were all very popular TV Entertainment Shows. I always had to make it home to watch Midnight Special and loved watching Soul Train on Saturdays. It was integrated then, we went to clubs and just danced and enjoyed the music together. My girlfriends and I went to Discos downtown where all races were there. We didn't focus on color as much as they do now, believe it or not.
As old white granny I have always loved Lou Rawls. He has always been one of my favorites.
I was a British teenager when this came out and we loved it, there was so much great dance music and we made the most of it! We had one popular music show back then, Top Of The Pops, and it was for everyone.
I remember this song from the 70s. He always had a very smooth voice.
I'm 74. Those were the best of times!
I love Lou Rawls , his voice was like velvet. I was fortunate to attend several of his concerts. That guy could really put on a spectacular show, great performer and an all around nice guy
A supreme talent. This one was #1 on the Billboard Hot 100! As far as these television dance shows are concerned, your observations about demographics are pretty accurate. It must be said however, that American Bandstand was an exception. That show, from the very beginning in the 1950's, featured a much more diverse crowd than was typical of the era. That was at the insistence of the show's host, Dick Clark. I always felt that "Soul Train" was a push back, of sorts. They did, however, feature the occasional white artist.
Lou Rawls........A smooth dude.with a unique voice. Check out "Stormy Mondsy" ( 1989 live video) and "Love Is A Hurting Thing". I was introduced to Lou Rawls' music by a friend in 1968. So glad he did.
I will never not love this song ❤
Television played to specific audiences, not radio. Radio in the 70's was an amazing mix- artists like Lou, The Spinners ,CCR, Led Zepplin, Jackson 5, Steppenwolf, The Carpenters...never knew what you were going to hear, and it was glorious!
I live in New Zealand and in the mid 1970s, not long before Christmas my girlfriend invited me to a large family gathering and she told me I would be surprised by one person there. When the band started up Lew Rawls walked on stage and started performing. What a great performance in such an intimate atmosphere. My girlfriend knew I liked him. He had a close peronal connection to some members of her family. He also had a great sense of humour and ran a line of jokes for a while. Also sang some great songs that I never heard produced on a label.
Ohhhh yeahhhhhhh that's some midnight lovin soundtrack!!
My mom had this album when I was a kid. Lou Rawls was pure class! My Grandma liked him too and Nat King Cole, George Benson...
Soulll TRAIN...I can still hear it. A TV show out of Chicago. Loved the dancing.
As soon as you hear "You'll never find" you know it's his rich deep voice.
SMOOOTH !
His song, a cover, "At Last" . Is beautiful. I also saw him act in an episode of " Big Valley".
Wow, I don’t think I’ve heard Lou in at least 50 years! I sure did love him back in the 60’s!
I loved this song when it came out and it still hits my soul every time I hear it. He came out as a cross-over artist with this and, at least for me, was part of the start of my own journey to love music of all genres. What a voice!
What an incredible voice. This song was everywhere and I never got tired of hearing it or anything else this man sang. Great reaction . Thanks for your time and thoughts. Best wishes for you, your wife and daughter on the soon to be new arrival of your second daughter. Peace, love and blessings for family.✌🤗🙏
Was hoping someone would finally get into some Lou Rawls music. This was definitely on Soul Train. He had amazing albums and usually dressed in suit and tie for TV performances. One of my all time favorite singers with that fantastic voice. Thank you and I hope you have a chance to react to more of his videos and more of The Righteous Brothers.
What your watching is Lou Rawls on Soul Train ! Every Sat American Bandstand then Soul Train came on TV. My sister and I never missed them...thats where we learned to dance 😆
Lous right up there with Barry White. I'm surprised your dad never turned you on to him
AND LUTHER VANDROSS
Have to say so miss him from 60's ❤❤
You did it again BP. Lou Rawls had such a silky voice🔥🔥🔥👵🏼 Gmaw
AM radio in the 70's played everything. Rock, soul, Motown, country, we learned and loved it all. There were no color lines, baby!!! Especially here in the desert southwest. Your New Mexico Lady jammin out here! Love ❤️ this one!!
am was AMasing !
A great love song is I Cross My Heart by George Strait. Another great song is I Saw God Today by George Strait, perfect for a new Dad like yourself! Enjoy
I haven't heard this one in a long time. Takes me back.
Yeah! Disco!
I love Lou Rawls! If I Coulda Woulda Shoulda is another great one.
What a great idea to bring Lou Rawls to Philly to record...Yes The Sound of Philadelphia. TSOP had some of the finest producers, arrangers and session muscians. Sigma Sounds Studios was a wonderful merging of all of the talents. O'Jays , Herold Melvin and the Blue Notes, Intruders, Billy Paul...
