One of the best to ever do it-marv you ain't gonna believe this but,i just put that classic on a soul compilation the other day...jerry butler -forever!!
I know you love great music so it's not too hard to believe. Jerry Butler has never made a bad recording in my opinion!
A great song & performance by Jerry Butler and one of the early pillars of The Philly Soul Sound. Thanks Marv2.
Jerry Butler is a first class talent. His name does not come up often enough when his contemporaries are praised in popular culture.
The person who originally posted that on youtube has a number of other video
performances and as I understand, more in the can. I bookmarked his/her channel to
see what other goodies show up in the future. I can't help but be curious about who
were the girls backing Jerry here. Sorry, I'm anal like that....
Splanky, the very first lady on the left I believe is Brenda Eager who Jerry recorded a duet with.Quote:

OMG, how did I not recognize Brenda Lee Eager? So after refreshing a crippled memory
I see the group is Peaches, his back up singers. Still don't know who the other girls are
but obviously Brenda was the cream. Ain't Understanding Mellow had what I thought was
the coolest bass line of the time. Dopest as they say nowadays. Have to listen to it again
this morning...Thanks, guys...
I believe the woman next to Brenda is Jerry's sister Mattie.Quote:
