The superb Nickolas Ashford & Valerie Simpson who together wrote some of the greatest tunes ever! Featuring live performance footage and the studio recording audio.
Love how Fellow Travelers used this song in the episode I just watched. Also, I don't know that I really ever fully appreciated the brilliance that is Ashford & Simpson.
Man, I miss them. 💔 Will we, The Melanated* in this accursed land ever again bring our Since Creation Gifts and Energy back to our community that this “industry” stole and reprogrammed? I say... DAMN RIGHT WE WILL! 💯 *You have to be one of us to understand this comment. If you’re not, you won’t. ✊🏽
@@JonniePolyester merci pour cette vidéo! Je ne connaissais vraiment que "Solid" as a rock en 1985, on n'entendait rien de ces sons en 1979 en France, et j'étais trop jeune surtout!
I love Ashford and Simpson. This is one of my favorite disco songs of all times and stays in my listening rotation!. It's a beautiful song with a timeless message. And that break down at 2:39 is iconic. 😎
I feel blessed.....I just checked my record collection and not only do I have the album of this song.....I also have the 12 inch special lp dj record.......a perfect cure to the covid19blues.
Lol as a grown women who grew up on their music & now gets 🔥 love, I can’t help but to imagine what their private love life was bc SHEESH they were always 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😤😁😍
There is something to be said about two people who find each other time and time again. No matter what situations they end up in or how far apart they become - they come back to each other. Those are the people who have a little thing called fate on their side. Those are the people I envy. It is almost like the world is saying, "stop separating you are meant to be together. Love always fixes itself and finds it way back." - Valerie Cheers Brown
Valerie Brown Cheers i like to call it soul mates..i met mine in primary school. In secondary we went opposite ways losing touch for about 2yrs. then we ended up working together. Then losing track for over 15yrs.i moved to the states and continued on with my life. 2yrs. Ago i ran into her in the grocery store in Florida turns out she had moved to the states 4mos.earlier and we lived one street over from each other.
YEEEEEES ONCE IN A LIFETIME DUO I NEVER MISSED THEIR CONCERTS IN CHICAGO THEY WERE AMAZING MY FAVORITE ENTERTAINERS I REALLY MISS NICK NOTHING BUT BLESSINGS PEACE LOVE HAPPINESS AND FAVOR UPON Valerie and Family keep RESTING IN PEACEFUL HEAVENLY PARADISE NICK GOD HAS YOUR BACK AMEN
just bought their live performance vinyl album in prestine condition for only a few dollars.....this is true music that touches deep into the soul unlike todays music.
This one of so many reasons that I m sooooo happy to be 😍🥰😘white. So I can enjoyed this incredible music. I miss nick. A Kind generous multi talented person black or white ain’t no difference.
This white guy can't change that part of me, but I love these 2! I listened to this so many times in the summer of 1979! The orchestration and chemistry of Valerie and Nick is amazing. Goosebumps!
This remember me to the beginning of the American discotheks in The Netherlands. Great musik. It's makes me realy happy. I have this song missed. The early 1980 was a new beginning in my live:... TOP TOP
They were perfect together! Me seeing them dance got me up trying to do what they are doing. I downloaded this in Spotify and I play it while I'm running in the mornings. I bet the crowd is pumped!
I love how they wrote their hooks to go right into another verse.....just gave the music energy....and seeing them in this together, vibrant and magical......whew. This beauty was why disco was killed off.....it was so powerful and was open to everybody and it wasn't about anything but love.
This music is so great! I can't stop diggin, it's impossible and i want to dance so freaking bad it's too bad this kinda music doesn't play in the clubs anymore..! Only trap beats and some guy or girl flabbering adlibs..
Love how Fellow Travelers used this song in the episode I just watched. Also, I don't know that I really ever fully appreciated the brilliance that is Ashford & Simpson.

At the risk of giving away my age....I still have this 12" single and still play it.....and all my early moves come back!
And why wouldn't you! It's flawless. An anthem of the ages. A soundtrack to our youth (and more besides).
Ditto.. and I have the album.

When Black music was beautiful
yep classy and groovy not like that ugly rap and hip hop !
AMEN! Now it’s all disgusting tattoos and dressing and acting like inmates and strippers. Yuck.
yep ! nothing to do with crappy rap
@@aligattor2639 hip hop is a respectable genre. The old generation is pure hip-hop, definitely not the same as today.
Love to watch them perform, ...LOVE BLACK LOVE
I love black and white love
Straight 🔥
I love this music ...thank you Ashford & Simpson
