I love me some Joe Simon, back in the days, my goodness, my older siblings, they had so many of his albums, 45s, tapes, Cleopatra Jones Movie, the love scene between Tamara Dotson and Bernie Casey was the bomb! I stop playing cards, because I realized I was the "Ace of Spade"! And still is, lol, and when they found one of my bf's body, all he had in his pocket was a, "Nickel and a Nail". Long live the great Joe Simon!
He was okay. I wouldn't say he was great! I disagree with what he was saying about the Jackson 5. He must have been smoking something then because the Jackson 5 was the hottest thing right from the beginning. Given some invisible God, all the credit for his success. Maybe he should have considered that his success was due to his own willpower and drive to succeed. Becoming a Christian was the biggest mistake he ever made✝️🤔?
Prayers went up for this icon... I learned about Mr. Joe through my mom uncle's & other day members. As a lil girl I was the disc jokey in the house while in another part the grown ups would sit down and play cards listen to music... I just wished those that are gone would have answered the call to salvation... Praying for those that remain...
The Great Joe Simon. I followed some of his music. Great voice. Great testimony. RIP 🙏🏿(King)(Bishop)🙏🏿My husband loved Joe Simons music. He was a local singer/musician here in Texas. He use to sing Joe Simons songs. 🙏🏾RIP to my husband....Mr J Diggs🙏🏿also
OUR LATE MOTHER AND FATHER INTRODUCED US TO THE GREAT JOE SIMONE MUSIC WHEN WE WERE LITTLE 💕❤️ I GREW UP LISTENING TO YOUR MUSIC EVERY FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY MORNING. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE ❤️ YOUR MUSIC AND IT IS PLAYED EACH WEEK AND ENJOYED. GOD’S CONTINUOUS LOVE ❤️ AND BLESSINGS STAY UPON YOU, AMEN 🙏
I was enthralled by this interview. I always remembered Joe Simon as a great singer/performer. It's good to hear straight from these artists. The real story is usually educational and this was. God is great. Thanks to all who made this information possible.
What we have got used to these days is young men growing up in church choirs leaving the church and going wildly and yours is not only good but divine. God bless you as this is a part of you I did not know.
What a testimony, that's just like God, He can make you forget whatever had you. Not many come out of that life style, and give their heart ♥ completely to God. That's the power of God, I'm a living witness!!
We used to see Joe at the Apollo all the time he was super cool with his awesome band!!!! Joe Simon where ever you are right now I want you to know we dug you big time! I love many of them but "Baby, Don't Be Looking In My Mind" is at the top of my list.
My mother used to sing Joe Simon songs all the time; I was a youngster and swore she'd made these songs up UNTIL one day long after her death, I heard "Nine pounds of steel", playing at a Starbucks coffee shop, I damn near broke down in tears! That was my mother's favorite song!!;;;
R.I.P. to a true Master of SOUL. I first discovered Joe Simon from his inclusion on many K-Tel albums like Super Bad. Later l bought his greatest hits and still play it!
AMEN. MY LATE MOTHER AND FATHER WOULD PLAY YOUR MUSIC ON SATURDAY 'S AND DANCE. I LOVED TO SEE THEM DANCE TOGETHER. I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED YOUR MUSIC AND AS AN ADULT, I STILL LISTEN TO YOUR MUSIC AND I LOVE ALL OF YOUR MUSIC AND GOSPEL MUSIC, AMEN. GOD'S CONTINUOUS BLESSINGS STAY UPON YOU AND YOUR FAMILY, AMEN
Man that was FANTASTIC!!!! my dad loved Mr Simons music, and I'm soo happy to find this interview on RUclips, God bless Mr Simon he gave a very good insight into his career, Mr Simon if you are reading this one of your band mate's Sly Stone is not doing well in Oakland CA.and it is sad.
It's so unfortunate that some entertainers get caught up in thinking that singing RNB is such a sin , people fall in love , marry and have families doing exactly what they're singing about ... This brother short changed me on his great talent that god blessed him with .
Hey Mr.Joe Simon, Hope you're well,,Pass by your home in Simmesport,La.I'm from Louisiana, yes,I hated picking cotton also,that how I learned to cook so well,because my mother made me cook,all the meals,while they pick cotton Stiil listening to Nine Pound Steal. Love you Mr.Joe Simon. 7/19/2021
I was born and raised in a small town in Louisiana. I was a musician (guitarist/ singer) from the time I was 11 years old. In my teens, around 1965 or 66, I played with a recording group comprised of older guys (Henry Clements and the Trojans) from Crowley, Louisiana. One of my greatest memories from my teens was getting to back up Joe Simon when he came back to do a concert in his hometown of Simmesport. I got to watch this masterful performer from the best vantage point ever, onstage with him. Although I've been fortunate enough to have met and worked with a lot of people whose music and acting I have admired through the years, I will never forget that concert.
I used to listen to Joe Simon on WLAC...."way down South in Dixie" Gallatin, Tennessee...with John R....Randy's Record Mart back in the 1960s. Joe Simon was one of the greatest. WLAC was one of the greatest R&B radio stations in the country. You could pick it up on AM radio just about all over the USA at night.
@@ESmith-is9es WLAC had the greatest artists on there....some that you would almost never hear anywhere else...John R, Hoss Allen and Gene Nobles where so great. I even loved the commercials they had. Just wondering what part of the country you're in @E. Smith? I'm in the "Almost Heaven" state, but I've listened to WLAC in West Virginia, Virginia, Washington, D.C., North and South Carolina, and all over the South and in Oklahoma and Texas....and just about any place in the country when I was traveling at night. Great memories!
@@ceeuuu01 (Beautiful picture Che Lo) You know your struggles and the struggles of life in the coal camps, where a coal miner's life was worth less than a mule, have a lot in common. You can hear the stories in the lyrics of lots of country songs..... I hope life's been good to you and you're doing great now....and things are better than when you were growing up.
Often times R&B and Country music cross paths.....I think because both have roots in hard times and hard luck. I'm a White boy, born in the coal fields in a house with no indoor plumbing....I can identify with Country and R&B music.
Now who would have the mine to say that!!!! A man with with some deep feeling. Why he could write a great Blues song outta that.....Oh no!! I am real surprised somebody hadn't done called Joe a racist for even thinking that. Lord have Mercy... You are great Joe Simon 🎤👍
Cleo was the great movie of the 70s. The theme song by Joe Simon was the greatest. I think this movie should have won an Acadamy Award, and Joe should have received one for that song.
Totally agree with you 💯 but Hollywood still today would not have pushed hard for any award- even though the movie was the top movie of 73 Right On, Cleo!
My parents owned a nightclub and liquor store in South Carolina. Growing up, Joe Simon was a permanent fixture on the jukebox, in particular his wonderful song “Nine Pound Steel”. I love Joe Simon.
THANK YOU JOE SIMON SOMETHING MY BROTHER HAROLD YOUNG SHARED SOMETHING WITH MY MOTHER.WHEN HE PLAYED BEING A DRUMER. THANKS FOR HAVING A CONVICTED HEARTS.MY MOTHERS PRAYERS HAS BEEN ANSWERD.
Bishop Simon said something about not understanding why "Get Down, Get Down" was so popular. "good beat, easy to dance to" ~ its fun, happy, nice to dance to, makes you feel good ~ he even laughs at the end ~ infectious ~ I do not see that as serving the devil ~ more making a joyful noise ~ then there is that voice
I loved him I knew he was from L all men from Louisiana knew how to make a song relate to themself.there were no future for the b man there.they had to get the he'll out& he did so glad 💘 u Joe
Gm edagdwg thanks for sharing this sad story of what happens when you have a real want god bless him god bless this man for being hisself as a child of God only God can teach you to be a respectful man no matter what you do soooooooo blessed to know God for myself Linda j peace ❤️💯☮️☮️☮️☮️☮️☮️
Iz have luvs this man,for years.To this day,I remember those DayZ,down in Georgia;1968/1970.John R.(1590);"Nashville,Tennessee&only in Nashville, Tennessee"!
Remember when Joe Simon was here in Michigan way over 30 some years ago at the local 212 and he danced all night long with my sister and I and Friends Joe we are truly going to miss you we love you we will see you next time in another life so long
ON THAT TESTIMONY AMEN WHAT A TRANSFORMATION FIRST TIME HE REALLY NEEDS TO WRITE A BOOK FIRST TIME LISTENING TO THIS HE REALLY HAVE A LOT OF TRUE DEPTH
Which if you think about it, he opened the door for Hip hop! Keep in mind, arguably "King Tim 3rd" was the mainstream first rap record or should I say, it came out before " Rapper's Delight"! " King Tim was performed by THE FATBACK BAND ON SPRING RECORDS! , HMMM👍🏾✊🏿💥. Some may argue this point! 🤣, it will be fun!!!!!
@@MD-DLive I remember that King Tim 3rd was actually the 1st rap record. I remember being a young teenager and discussing that with my friend Michael. I was disagreeing with him but he was right!!!
I remeber Joe Simon from back in the Day. I really like Some of his Songs. How I remembered them so very well , Cause I Stayed on Punishment.im glad my mom put those 45's on. That's how I new the legends. R I P Mr Simon...
Nobody is a bigger fan than I. Are we breaking up, it he’s that way sometime, crying time in Memphis, walking down lonely street, before the night is over, when love is in your heart, awwwwwww shittt I’m not naming them all but you get the drift. I admire youthful and seasoned listener’s and fans. Makes me feel good to know I’m not alone. Only listening to music of this time period or influenced by this period. My old life maybe!
I remember all of Joe Simon's music even though I was a young girl at the time.My favorite was "The choking kind, Drowning in the sea of love, Power pf love. I us3d to love these songs.
I loved his attitude. He was a great dude. He lived a long life. I heard a lot of his songs as a kid.
I love me some Joe Simon, back in the days, my goodness, my older siblings, they had so many of his albums, 45s, tapes, Cleopatra Jones Movie, the love scene between Tamara Dotson and Bernie Casey was the bomb!

Long live the great Joe Simon!
He was one of my favorite singer. He was a great singer and lots of soul. In fact I brought all his songs
"I've been down one time and I've been down two times but, now I'm drownin'..... drownin' in the sea of love!" 😁☝️
GROWING UP IN 1960S WAS A DECADE OF ALL DECADES I WAS THERE IN THAT TIME OF MANY CHANGES! AND MR. JOE SIMON WAS PART OF THAT! 7 21.

I've been a big fan of Joe Simon since I was young. My Mom had a record of his called "Drowning in the sea of love"
It was sampled by Gangstarr for "You know my Steez"!💥💥💥💥
"Drowning in The Sea of Love" is one I remember too. The lyrics, of course, mean more now that I'm older. The R & B music told stories.
I remember that song!!!!!!
I love me some Joe Simon. Power of Love
You are so cool Joe Simon
