- Los Angeles, CA-Very few singers ever accomplish what this soul man was able to do: create a lasting and indelible impression on listeners with only a few notes of a song. But that’s exactly what Brenton Wood did on his smash hit “The Oogum Boogum Song” in 1967. The opening piano notes and then Wood’s unique vocal still sounds brand new a half-century later.
With his two classic studio albums Oogum Boogum and Baby You Got It recently remastered and his deep soul gems from the vaults: a stirring and deeply personal version of Sam Cooke's Civil Rights anthem "A Change Is Gonna Come" along with "Diamonds," a sought-after song that is among Brenton Wood's most cherished recordings, Brenton Wood has had a career of both mainstream success and underground devotion.
All Music Guide recently wrote: “It’s hard not to hear Brenton Wood’s biggest hit, ‘Gimme Little Sign,’ and not be convinced that it very well might be the greatest single ever cut. It relies on no one thing-the song is slinky, surprising and seductive, blessed with a perfect production (the organ break in the middle is positively, eerily beautiful) and a wonderful, understated performance by Wood, who proves with his smooth, sure-handed delivery that he is one of the Brenton Wood arrived on the scene in 1967 with back-to-back hits “The Oogum Boogum Song” and “Gimme Little Sign” that would carry the then-Compton resident from a regional Southern California artist to international stardom.
The Los Angeles based independent label Double Shot Records would find immediate success in the late 60’s with Count Five - Psychotic Reaction and Brenton Wood - Oogum Boogum. A hot bed of garage rock and energetic soul mixed with a hint of doo-wop and pop sensibilities, the 7-inch/45 RPM-based label was home to a diverse R&B artist roster including signing what was their highest profile artist yet in Bobby Freeman before the influential label unexpectedly folded at the dawn of the 70’s. During this high-voltage period, Brenton Wood would record eleven 45s and two studio albums, creating a unique soul and pop hybrid style crossed with moving doo wop ballads.

I have loved this song since the moment I first heard it in what probably 7th grade for me......and I'm almost 69 now. One thing that I sure wish I could get the answer to is this: Who is the cat who is singing harmony with Brenton on this and OOGUM BOOGUM?? That guy just kicked ASS on this tune. What he sang is not easy....try it yourself sometime. Anybody know who it is was ? Thx

Love this music, i just saw him in concert on the 12th
He’s still alive???
@@aaamazing9888 yes I’m going to one of his concerts
Just saw him tonight November 25, 2023. He's as old a my mother, 82, had to be helped off the stage but shockingly, He's Still Alive! And not only that but has dates for after the new year scheduled. What was almost as amazing was Barbara Mason who isn't as old has him but close to it. The place was sold out and had been rescheduled because a storm canceled the first one in August. People came from Los Angeles both times! Real Super Fans! You should've seen all the youngsters with their VATO parents, lots of plaid, hats and fun and happiness. It was really fun!@@aaamazing9888
Had to Refresh some rusty memories just to recall the title but man what a beat !!
