"Shame, Shame, Shame" is a 1974 hit song written by Sylvia Robinson, performed by American disco band Shirley & Company and released on the Vibration label. The lead singer is Shirley Goodman, who was one half of Shirley and Lee, who had enjoyed a major hit 18 years earlier, in 1956, with the song "Let The Good Times Roll" for Aladdin Records. The male vocalist is Jesus Alvarez.[1] The saxophone solo is by Seldon Powell, whose instrumental version, "More Shame", is the B-side.[2][3][4] The track, with its prominent use of the Bo Diddley beat, was one of the first international disco hits and reached number 12 on the Billboard charts. It also made number one on the Billboard soul singles chart for one week.[5] The phrases "got my sun roof down, got my diamond in the back" appeared as "diamond in the back, sun roof top" in William DeVaughn's 1974 hit "Be Thankful for What You Got"[6] and "one monkey don't stop no show" was used as the title of Honey Cone's 1971 hit "One Monkey Don't Stop No Show (Part 1)" and several others. "Shame, Shame, Shame" also stayed at number one on the Billboard disco/dance charts for four weeks.[7] A full-length album, Shame, Shame, Shame was subsequently recorded and released in 1975.[8]
I won’t disagree but this song doesn’t strike me as strictly disco…I wouldn’t argue that it IS, but it seems too pop, too melodic, something to me makes it not quite disco…
😊1975 , c'est la première fois que j'ai entendu ce morceau j'avais à peine 10 ans aujourd'hui dès que je le réécoute il me donne toujours autant d'émotions shame shame shame la classe à l'état pur 🤟🇨🇵
I don't know what I better about this: the fact that they are killin it with the singing or the zero effs given in their performance. Ain't no shame in their game - at all!
@@TWolf-gt6if Hard enough? Hard How? Its obvious that good music doesn't exist anymore, with the profanity and lack of writing music skills and terrible lyrics, What's there to search?🤷♂️
@@WhitemenaresoSexy I really want to hear you say the word "Profanity".. are you an American? preferably from the south...? a preacher? "Pro faan niddy" ooh la la! 😂😎 Oh and BTW *MEN are sexy* 👨🏿👨🏾👨🏽👨🏻👨
Shame on you if you don't like good tunes that make you want to jump and go, this is from someone who goes way back to the beginning and still going , don't be afraid to jump in and let go atleast once, stay safe for a while longer!
1975 was a bad year for me with a huge family bust-up, and it was music like this that brightened the year. I agree with Mortis xx, this belongs among the classics.
I just heard this on a random radio at work... Love it instantly. I can't believe I never heard this banger before! Gonna wear this ish out for the next week...or month! Also, I don't believe I've ever seen a guy that looks like he knows how to party as much as this dude!
Music at its best... Both were fantastic and it is hard not to join the groove and the beat... Shirley Goodman was already an established R&B singer in the 50s... (one half of Shirley & Lee duo). She died on July 5, 2005. Jason Alvarez is a Cuban-born American musician then. Now a pastor.
@@tinecrinec4769 Yeah because in the real world we don't see Black and Whites living together like we supposed to. If we did no one would be looking at color OK.
Best time ever! 70s was a revolutionary time for all matters political, cultural, technological and the best music ever. I am so glad to been able to enjoy it all at the time. Disco music for ever!
I like this because they just seem like friends having a great time. It’s a weird quiet guy who’s surprisingly great at singing and dancing, and a black lady from your office. And they’re best friends
The lead singer Shirley Goodman, was one half of the duo Shirley and Lee who had a mega hit in the US in 1956: wrote and recorded the song "Let The Good Times Roll" for Aladdin Records. The second singer of Shirley and Co. Mr Jesus Alvarez changed his name to Jason Alvarez and became a pastor for the Love of Jesus Family Church. He recorded several gospel albums. This guy had an awesome voice of true soul!
I like everything about this video!.. The music is superb! The 70's was the best although i was just an infant..They can sing their asses off! And because they are having so much fun, they complement one another... Perfection! Unfortunately we don't hear music like this anymore! Thumbs up!!!!
Yeah I actually looked up the chords bc I couldn’t understand why that shift was so dramatic and it looks like it’s due to the key change you mentioned
Even to this day this song pops up randomly in my head.. that guy seriously has a set of pipes!one of the first 45's I ever had. Played it over and over
Simply amazing, their voices blend together beautifully! What talent! This song will always be one of my favorites! Both have outstanding vocal abilities!
Born in this decade one year after this song came out but glad to be a 70s baby even if I didn’t quite grow up in this era. I appreciate it that much more
She was part of a duo called Shirley and Lee back in the 1950's, had a hit called " Let The Good Times Roll", then 20 years later came up with this record!!
was a great tune to bump too in the 70s, loved it, Shirley Goodman died in 2005 aged 69, Jason Alvarez still going at 70, think he is a pastor or some kind of preacher now,
My mum always played a record called feel so good by Shirley and Lee. I just learnt that this same Shirley sang with Shirley and company. Had to come and see and hear or distinct vocals.
In my humble opinion, this gem is totally underrated and belongs amongst the classics.
And she is super cute!
yes
Here here ;)) aaaaawwwaaa !!!
I love this!
Fantastic flowing combination
Yes we do I'm 71and nothing beats the 70s music 🎵🎶
This is fantastic. Over 48 years ago it was recorded, and will remain fantastic. We are so fortunate to have RUclips.
Check out the Jimmy Reed original from 1963.

It’s a cover of a 1963 Jimmy Reed song.
I do remember that
Ms. Robinson was a real hustler for that time..❤🔥🎶🏆🏆
Superb contrast between the two -- her softness and his growling. They are really working it!
Growling??
@@RedVynil
... his spoken/sung non-words ... and cries of anguish ...
Lovely soft yet strong voice. Beautiful. Delightful. And thanks utube for all the background info
Man, that was some excellent vocals from both singers.
For a guy listed as "& Company"... that dude can sing !!!
And move 💕💕💕
Yeh.. tjink they shud of at least named him. He MADE this song the classic it is.
Man's name is Jason Alvarez and he has since become a pastor
@@GeldtheGelded Thanks so much for this precision ! 👍🏾
No cap
But I Can hit those notes to
If I drank a bottle of whiskey and smoke a pack of figgiest 😅😂😂😂
Jason Alvarez with the incredible upper range, all before autotune! Both of them sound amazing, but I love that wild backing vocal track!
Man, this dude had an amazing, and very soulful sound... and they complemented each other perfectly.
He's a pastor now in jersey
And, all these years, I thought he was black!
Jason Alvarez is like a rock god.....just find out he is a pastor now...dude lost his way, its a real shame shame shame!!!
Absolutely! They are awesome!
@@patrick550 He lost his way by becoming a pastor? You're kidding! Dude, you are the one who lost your way!
That dude is in the groove
Yes he is doing it until he's satisfied
HE SHOULD BE, HE'S HISPANIC

That'll be Jason Alvarez, now a born again Christian and a gospel singer
Surprised by that dudes voice. And that lady is a natural.
He’s known now as pastor Jason Alvarez & has a church in Essex County NJ
@@lisawoski4371 I hope they sing in church!
And his natural body rhythm. He can dance, he can defo hit those notes
I now they r great his voice is great
I read somewhere he is a preacher now
How does he not have records of his own ????? He's fantastic 💙
Shame, Shame, Shame on those who do not love this song.
I wish there was a ''laugh'' reaction for this comment. Love it.
No other medium has ever brought the races together like disco of the '70s. Something we very much need today.
👌🏻🤙🏿

One of the greatest songs, and vocal performances ever. R.I.P Shirley
Oh no 😲😲😲😲 god rest her soul beautiful song and soulful Queen ❤🌟🙏🏽🙏🏽

@@kevinmachin941 A LONG WHUT
Well, it sure brought back dancing, which I think got lost somewhere in concept albums with 15-20 minute tracks.
And in the UK
I won’t disagree but this song doesn’t strike me as strictly disco…I wouldn’t argue that it IS, but it seems too pop, too melodic, something to me makes it not quite disco…
All these years later, it's still a great song to dance too. How can you not love his voice!
Classic song ! Growing up in Dublin we played this song at our youth club disco! Great times !
yep agree
@@anneliamohara2842❤❤
All these years, never thinking hard enough about who was singing and now I finally see it: adorable, skilled and about music.
Say what you will about Disco, it brought people from all walks of life together, united in dance and song! :)
that's why the 1% tried to kill it in 1980, but it just turned to HiNRG and House.
I totally agree 👍
The whole anti-disco thing comes off as so weird now.
@ Ed Avalon Roofing . EXACTLY....
Disco was the Shiznit!!!!!
She sang this at my high school. Autumn of 75.
Wow really

The pipes on these 2 singers are stellar
This song is a classic you never hear on any radio station anymore.

Who needs Miss Ross?
I remember watching this on Top of the Pops....I miss this type of music 🥰
This is the first time I heard this song in 50 years! Music is the elixir of life!
We need to bring Disco music back to be happy again!
I am totally aggree with you !!
And where rock is?
Songs don't need to be longer than 3:30. That's what killed Disco.
Well the is some master piece of disco lasting 17mlnutes love to love you baby of Donna summer try me I know we can make it!
Concordo!!!! I agree!
MASSIVE HIT in the U.K. what a voice both these singers have .. bring back the 70’s especially for the music 🎶
Jason Alvarez is now a gospel singer and has his own ministry
...and Shirley Goodman retired from the music industry in the late 70s
I feel rather privileged to have been in my 20s when this came out, what a time it was
me to !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

REMEMBER dancing to this back in the 70's wow , time goes by so long ,, loved this one ,, yay
Me too still am ❤ nice little Jack Russell 🤗
Amazing vocals by both singers! This will always be one of my favorites! Excellent job Shirley & Company!

totally agree its truly brilliant xx
Listen to the 60’s soul music....
The 70s were amazing! It all went downhill from 80s (Thatcher/Reagan)
I have to agree with you, I was an infant myself too, its obvious that people our age appreciate it then and now
This is a unique sound not to be matched ever GREAT!!!
These 2 adorable birds are forever sooo adorable... I still have so much fun listening to them just like way back then.
Much much much better than the music nowadays.
These were the days Music meant something ...and that fire in thr air..Phenomenal...!!❤🔥❤
