RIP MICKY lavenu 1956/2012 he got me into this blinding track we were together for 28yrs he was so unique and a character i miss him everyday xx love RachelX
I was very happy and lucky to have found this at s record fair in London about 15 years ago for less than a fiver! The vendor obviously didn't have a clue.
I've never heard a bad rendition of What Does it Take. Everyone from Junior Walker, Santana, Kenny G, to Alton Ellis are all great treatments for a great song.
Don't forget the version of the great storyteller ,swamp fox, Tony Joe White. The author of Polk Salad Annie, Rainy Night in Georgia, Roosevelt and Ira Lee, Even Trolls love Rock 'n Roll, As the crow flies. And some 30+ other great songs.
This song was of one of those songs from 2023 year. 💜💜I will keep good memory of my love. Today I heard in advertising the sample of this song and of course it got on my mind like how happy I was that summer ‘23. I write this comment like a message in the bottle, knowing that it will go down in the deep sea of my love. I wish you well. 💫
I was in New York in 2007 my very first time overseas I was homesick from my beautiful island Jamaica and this song kept me I love Alton Ellis rest in peace
I'm in my 20s but my parents played nothing but roots and island reggae in our household. Soooooo, this song is my jam.... to be specific, my favourite Alton Ellis song!!!❤❤❤🙌🙌🙌🙌
Leslie Kong sound is so obvious... Nothing sounds like Beverley records... such a unique sound, compared to other producers of the time... You can tell it's him, whether it's Alton Ellis or Bob Marley or any other star; the "blackhead chini-man" put his stamp on it.

Not to slight the great Ellis, but I've been trying forever via Google to find out the name of the primary woman backup singer because her intonation on her vocal is incredibly emotive and sexy. Anyone have any ideas?

My upstairs and downstairs neighbors, they all learned to love this song.
I don't have the vocabulary to describe what an absolutely sublime piece of bangingness this is! I hope my neighbours agree.

Better than the original let's be honest people, Especially that epic" And IIIIIIIIIIIIIIAAAAHHHH"
Not many people can take on Jnr Walker.but he has.10 out of 10.

Petfect song; the lead singer, the backup vocals and the tight musicians. Marvelous❤
A quite simply wonderful cover of Junior Walkers 60s soul anthem.
Jamaican reggae at its best.
Jamaican Rock Steady at its best!

Lol, I just realized this is Duke Reid, not Kong. (It sure sounds like it though; not a typical sound for Duke Reid)

Tony Joe White and Alton Ellis - two more gems, adding to this great song's legacy. Thanks.
Great track
It’s like al green and Bob Marley made a song I fuckin love it
That's the perfect description of this song. It has a Stax soul feel to the song with reggae which equals awesomeness. Lol!!!

Its his sister i think. Artense Ellis.
