Met and did rhinestone shirts for him and his daughter. She passed away a few years ago. I am so glad to have met and spent time with her. She was absolutely a daddy’s girl. RIP sweet angle. Thank you Mr.Latimore for your wonderful daughter and music.❤
I was 10years old when he came out with this song in 1974 this is when music was outstanding I am 59 years young almost 60 years young and still listing to his music today in 2024 his music will never get old
I grew up on the Blues, Soul R&B, Jazz and Gospel music. The Blues is the incarnation and creator of ALL of it, from the slaves singing in the fields to Jim Crow laws, to the Civil Rights marches and so on. Latimore is a great singer!
Stunningly beautiful and fantastic rendition. Voice, still sounding good. Not many musicians can sound as good or if not better than the studio in a live performance.

My baby played this during one of our disagreements...I waved my white flag. This is soul music, it spoke to me and drew me to him...all straightened out. Thank you, Mr. Latimore.
THIS WILL NEVER GET OLD!!! WHAT A TIMELESS CLASSIC... I CAN'T EVEN LIE... I'M 35 AND THE THREE RELATIONSHIPS I WAS IN I TAKE THE BLAME FOR MESSING UP THE RELATIONSHIP...
This is grown folks music. The era when music was music. Rest easy my brother. U are now singing and doing ur thang in Paradise, where everyday is Sunday and no more good-bus. Keep doing ur thang!!!!!
Benny Latimore is blessed with the gift of singing & performing like no other! Music like this is simply beautiful coming from his heart mind & soul!!! My brothers & sisters please understand it doesn't get no better than this!!!.....!
@@menopriezvisko2875 It is about her. It's also about you and me and the whole world. Instead of throwing curve balls, how about straightening out your anger issues
Aww Yes, I remember this song being played on the juxe box at Auntie Sweet's barbeque restaurant. I was a child and this song shaped my understanding of the complications of adult relationships. Great performance by the Emperor of Blues-Mr. Lattimore!!!!
" He's Good " is like saying Bruce Lee wasn't bad at martial arts .. I'd put this performance on my A list . Awesome soul singer , piano player , performer .....
This is who we called " the silver fox" ! Black, sexy, handsome and fine!!! Close your eyes young folk under the age 28 lol.. Bobby Rush said you ain't grown until you're 28...Real blues signing for sure. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
He sounds so good live,why have we gone so backwards music wise.I'm really lost at times.These singers sing with real heart & soul & the music never ages never.I'm not even old & I'm in love with this kind of music it's just to sweet..
"Sit yourself down and talk to me, Girl. Tell me what is on your mind." Classic lyrical music...WWRL AM New York City and WBLS FM, NYC from when radio was real people.
Come on now Lattimore and sang. I have a great appreciation for music like this now due to my dad, uncle , mom and auntie. I love y'all and thank y'all for blessing me with music like this.
Lattimore at his inspiring best,reminding us for you to understand you got to sit yourself down and spit it out let's straighten it out . Still sounds like yesterday...
Winston Lewis mr. Lewis have you ever been to Memphis Club Paradise you couldn't even get in the place Tyrone Davis Johnnie Taylor Stacy Lattimore was a legend Club Paradise what's the place in Memphis Tennessee if anybody knew anything about it that's why all the singing went down in Memphis but I remember my mother and father had a grocery store in Chicago on the westside Roseville Road we stayed upstairs in the store was downstairs that was a jukebox in the store I was a little kid then I remember my mother put that record on Let's Straighten It Out hahahaha😀😀😀😀😀😀😀🎤🎶🎹🎹🎹🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶 boy that old classic that you don't hear anymore but wdia 1070 in Memphis still play Still music yes they do God bless you my friend look check me out on Facebook if you got Facebook under Herbert Smith love to be your friend👪👪👪👪❤❤❤❤❤❤❤✊✊✊
It's November 1 2020 in a pandemic and this is my nightly bed time story. I love this song and the intro just does something to me LMAO. I put the headphones in and dance while I cook and clean . Westside woman Henry Horner...........Bless us All
HA!!! I laughed SO loud when he just walked off right as it felt like the song was hitting the climax. Haaaahahahahaha. That was the definition of "leave them wanting more"
My pops bumping this loud at his garage while working on people cars was my childhood. I heard all kind of blues blasting from that shop and still to this day. He's in his 70s and still doing it. Fixing on cars and listening to blues is big here in Mississippi.
Daddy I miss u playing this song when mommy was upset with u! I will never forget the flowers, candy, cards,and Diet Pepsi u brought for both of ur girls. U never forgot about me, I didn’t understand it until I became an mature young adult. Mommy would always fall for it to, sending me to Granny’s after u came home with the goodies. I was too young to know “y’all was gone straighten that shit out” &send me to Granny’s once that album hit the record player. U had the baddest stereo system back then. I promised u on ur death bed I would take care of ur favorite girl. It’s been two long years Daddy u left us, but u left us with memories& prior to ur death u still made sure ur favorite girls would be straight when u left us. I were all about straightening things out for the better. I take good care of Mommy as I should. U made it so easy Daddy, hope u Resting well in heaven!
Who's still listening in 2024 to this grown folk music ❤❤❤🎉

Very Exclusive
This is the 1st time I've actually watched this Version and I was woohoo in the car cause that is exactly my thoughts!
For sho!!!!!
Didn't know Latimore could make them keyboards talk like that. Much respect to this underrated Soul music legend.
He can play that keyboard
Yeah , he was jamming so smooth!
He played keys on a lot of sessions at Miami TK/Glades/Henry Stone's productions from 72 to 77 i guess
Mm
He’s played this song for like 40 years and it still sounds fresh….it’s in his DNA now!
THIS STILL ONE OF THE BEST SONGS FROM THE 1970'S IN MY BOOK.
Met and did rhinestone shirts for him and his daughter. She passed away a few years ago. I am so glad to have met and spent time with her. She was absolutely a daddy’s girl. RIP sweet angle. Thank you Mr.Latimore for your wonderful daughter and music.❤

Lattimore is so super talented.He puts on an excellent show.His voice, & his handsome looks make him irresistible to ignore.
I know what you mean. My wife and I seen him in concert I had to. Go to the restroom and remove my draws.
I just heard this properly, 35 years later. Pure classic soul music !
What a performance!! 🔥🔥🔥 Music is FOREVER
I grew up on the Blues, Soul R&B, Jazz and Gospel music. The Blues is the incarnation and creator of ALL of it, from the slaves singing in the fields to Jim Crow laws, to the Civil Rights marches and so on. Latimore is a great singer!
... and Rock and Roll.
Stunningly beautiful and fantastic rendition. Voice, still sounding good. Not many musicians can sound as good or if not better than the studio in a live performance.
Love this version!
Wow !!! He sounds just as good as he did in the 70's , and a good musician too !

"Your right ✅️ this is when music 🎶 was music 🎶 This is "CLASSIC" 👍🏿👏🏾👏🏾💪🏿
Latimore seems to have become better over time. What a great hit, and the music is gorgeous. I recall this song so well from back in the day.
This guy is a dynamic performer. Would love to see him live.
Benny Latimore is blessed with the gift of singing & performing like no other! Music like this is simply beautiful coming from his heart mind & soul!!! My brothers & sisters please understand it doesn't get no better than this!!!.....!

This song reminds me of my mom and dad. They were so in love. Rest in Peace to my heroes.
I really appreciate great music and great musicians 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾♥️♥️♥️♥️
Just came across this great song that i last heard nearly forty years ago. Good to hear again, but rather depressing those times are long gone.
That's for real Latimore. You are a great lyricist. Thanks.
A Masterclass in Soul music. Brilliant performance.
" He's Good " is like saying Bruce Lee wasn't bad at martial arts .. I'd put this performance on my A list . Awesome soul singer , piano player , performer .....

I've drove around many of late nights listening to this song. A good way to ease the mind. Then end the night with "Tyrone Davis-"it sure wasn't me"
Yes love everything about this song!!! Talking at the end was the truth. Timeless they don't make it like this anymore. ♥️♥️♥️
He sounds so good live,why have we gone so backwards music wise.I'm really lost at times.These singers sing with real heart & soul & the music never ages never.I'm not even old & I'm in love with this kind of music it's just to sweet..
