Junior Walker & The All Stars ~ What Does It Take (To Win Your Love) 1968 Soul Purrfection Version
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 апр 2021
- Welcome to Motown Monday!
The very first Billboard recognized R&B Chart topping single was "My Girl" by the Temptations and it spent six weeks in that spot until Jr Walker's & The All Stars blasted it out of its way and spent four weeks topping that new R&B with "Shotgun", a #4 Hot100 hit in 1965.
Johnny Bristol remembers that in the early 60's he and partner Jackey Beavers were performing at the same Battle Creek, MI club as was Junior & His All Stars who proved why they were so popular because they were able to play blues, rock, jazz and soul.
This was their second #1 R&B spending two weeks in that top spot and peaking at #4 pop, a gorgeous mid tempo Motown classic written by Johnny Bristol, Vernon Bullock and Harvey Fuqua who was once of the Moonglows and later on became the man that helped Sylvester attain mainstream status.
The real star of this song is that wonderful saxophone, it was like the sun breaking through on a cloudy day. The voice, well Jr Walker did not feel he was made to sing, but sing he did and the results were impressive. The first 35 seconds was Jr Walker's sax and then the vocals came in. James Jamerson and the rest of the gang were there to play the music updating the signature Motown sound. Jr's last pop appearance was for 1970's "Do You See My Love" a #32 chart hit.

Me,was thinking bout this JAM All DAY.....
Over here! 1963...chi town
I grew up white...listening to Mowtown, I am now 68 and still luvin it...
Me too! ❤
White as they come. Motown was the best. Brought us all together. Nothing will ever take that away. Love it at 67 myself. Going to love till the day I die. Passing it one to my grandkids now.
I wish we could bring back this sound and throw this modern day rap/hip-hop stuff into the garbage where it belongs. Motown was some of the best music ever. None of today's music can come close to touching it.
SO. TRUE!
I thank God for all the Motown artists and producers who blessed our lives with such a happy, joyful danceable memorable soundtrack. How could we ever repay them. God rest them all. 😊
April of 1969..Just finishing up 11th grade...hard not to cry sometimes...still walking around at 70...every day is a gift..
OMG J Sharp You just hit a homerun with those comments 🎯🥰

And it is!
I think so too. I love this song
Growing up in the 70’s was the best times in any generation we had all the classics
This tune is from 1969. A GREAT year for rock-Motown music!!!!!!
To those who remember and to those who have learned,bow your heads in sorrow that good music is no longer made,,,now give utube a big kiss 💋 for these gifts
This song deserves billion of views. It's the creative peak of Motown sound. It's brilliant in every way.
Don’t think the single was actually on Motown but still incredible music
@@user-hv8vu8dg9x Pure Motown. 100 %.
@@user-hv8vu8dg9x
It was on Motown.
The VIP label.
Berry divided the company into several record labels to get his records played,
and to not pay payola.

Soo true, what heavenly music 🙏
I heard this in 1969, it's 2021 and I'm 71 yrs old I still get that great feeling when I hear it, I was very much in love with a special person in Chicago, my god what a song,and what a 🎷 sax gonna blow for you now
WLS in Chicago!
I’m 72…was 18-9 when it first affected me..
From Tonny to Tony. I feel you Brother, Amen. Peace!
Kudos to all of us Baby Boomers..we lived through great music and turbulent times..Peace and Love to all@Tony Waldon@Linda V. Johnson
Your. So. Right. I'm. With. You**†*
Why can"t we have music like this anymore? The sounds of horns and a chorus were such a great sound compared to the empty, soulless garbage that gets dumped on us today.
You are so right…I suspect that real music, layered music, takes work ethic and talent. Young people today have neither. They have no idea what they’re missing and what their memories will lack.
A….men!!
The progressives killed it their celebration of Rap
Soooooo True!!!!!
I agree with you
Truly!! a Timeless Classic.
Awesome song, I am 77 years old, and I still go back into the 6o's to hear these songs I just love them
Me too
I’m 72 and these were days I will always treasure music and all the good times 🥰🥰
That's all I listen too! Oldies but goodies!!!
Me too 77 still rocks 😊
I'm 74 and right there with you brother.
Some of the most beautiful music ever made! RIP Mr. Walker. Blowing again in heaven. Thanks for the great music.
I'm 68..been thrilling to this song for decades. I never tire of it..

Same here sista...
In '69 we were 16 & 14..... goin' steady ..... slow dancing and smochin' to this tune........ Been married 51 years now.
This is CLASSIC! You do not hear music like this anymore. Now these are PROFESSIONALS.
I hate to admit it but we're getting old folks and that's probably what our parents and grandparents before them and their parents before them said the same thing the music today doesn't make any sense to me so I don't think we're that off we just love good music.
Feels good kind of music inside WOW love this song
thomas franco, I agree. I'm so thankful at 12-13 years old my Mom (RIP MA ✝️🕯️) let me join Columbia Record House Club & I ordered this cool album, played it in my room, dance by myself or journalled to my my heart's content🖋️📚. Beautiful music, good memories.
Be blessed all, 👵✌️💖.
well you either own it or you just go back to it and I just go back. nothing like it
@@margretgriego9511 I remember when I used to listen to Creedence Clearwater Revival when I was a teenager and my father used to say that is DOPE MUSIC. Now he listens to their music at 90 years old. That is so funny.
I sang this to my love when we met in 1969. We were married in 1970 and he passed in 2010.
My love of my life….
He's not dead, he's just hiding.
I am sad for your loss, but I rejoice for the love you found.
Sounds like a beautiful life❤️
Sorry to hear that Tricia God bless both of you
So sorry for your loss!
I used to listen to this on hot summer nites in Chicago

I was 13 when this was released. I babysat for a couple down the street. They had a fantastic collection of Motown, R&B, Blues, LP’s. Loved going there because I was allowed to play any I wanted. Fell in love with this song IMMEDIATELY! My first introduction into soul music. 50+ years later I still get that rush of excitement the minute those opening notes start. ❤❤❤ Once a soulie always a soulie.
I'm a born and raised Motown boy-East side Detroit ! No better music in the history of music.
I was 16 when this was made and it started me on my journey of love and happiness
This American-Sicilian says THANK YOU a million times to MOTOWN for bringing such great music to so many!
John if you would like there is a book about Vietnam , a fabulous best seller of a soldiers personal experiences and thoughts. The book is "" Rumor of War "" by Philip Caputo. OK John.
My name luigi guiseppi salardimo I'm a real Sicilian 99% And proud as you are
Man of culture
Beautiful music of Jr Walker and the all star. Lovely memories of the '69❤
Amen Piasan' No town like Motown ! American- (110 % -both grandfathers born there) Sicilian too-born and raised east side Detroit ! No better music !
It doesn't get any better than this. One of the best of all time.
Love the song Love the music
Yes, you are so right. This era of youg people, my self included, believed in romance. This song is so romantic.
Brilliant song in my top ten of all time
I could listen to this song 50 times a day! No music like this anymore.
Im on number 5 now--I gotta catch up to you
I'm 63 and catch some lost feelings while listening, man we were in happening times, great memories
That opening sax knocks me out every time.
I'm literally crying as I write this; beautiful music where did the days go
Me too!
My favorite part
And me !

I'm 71 and every time I hear this song it makes me tear up. For all the boys who lost there lives in Vietnam and the women who lost them . Great song!!
60’s baby and I can’t get enough of this song. Oldies is the only way for me👍🏾

My mom used played my sister's I was 7 years it still makes cry 😢 to think mom is no longer here in flesh she taught about more than one can imagine music was our solace !
@@dougcampbell8531 Absolutely 💯 love it !!!
Racism was horrible but the music and culture were good. Despite the bullshit we had a great time. Think you can better? Do it.
And me a sax I’m in heaven
I’m a 72 girl from Tijuana, México and still get chills when I listen To that sax , like it’s 1969 again
I was nine years old when this song came out. I’m the youngest of three daughters who lived and breathed AM pop & rock music, Their radios were on 24/7, as a result, I was fortunate enough to be exposed to the greatest hits of all time.
Like this one. Jr. made me a fan of dirty sax solos for the rest of my life.
Thank you Junior for teaching this old white boy what soul really is...!
This song always takes me back...to a happy place.
I can listen to this song on a loop over and over and over again, love it! 💗
Smmfh very well said so True, especially wen I'm driving.👍🎼🎷🎺🥰

Ditto! Exactly how I feel too. Got to keep rewinding it repeatedly 😊
Took your advice 😍💃🏿
From the sweet June of 69, Jr. Walker and the All Stars gave us this great song. About the time this 16 year old got his licence. Thrilling times!
I could listen to this all day, everyday! Over and over!!! I've lived thru 7 decades of music. This is in the top 5 of all the best ever recorded in my opinion!!! ❤️❤️❤️
I love this song so much.....I can just play it on repeat and never get enough of it!!!
The sax is just something special!
YES, you just dont hear them in music anymore
True, love it too.

This was my sister's favorite song she passed away in 2007 she had great taste in music I still have the 45 miss you sis..😔

I was being inducted into the Army and my last night at home after taking my finance home he was performing this song on TV. It has stuck in my mind mind ever since.
Welcome Home Brother!
Did you marry your fiance when you returned?
Thank you for your service❤
Awesome story and thank for sharing
The backing vocalists are doing something heavenly.
Background singers the andantes, background singers on many many Motown songs, in fact this song was recorded in Detroit at Motown, junior walker hated it didn't want to record it, it sat on the shelf for sometime before they convince him to record it, the rest is history
@@tonywaldon7801
Motown founder
Berry Gordy also hated it,
and originally had it as a
B-side.
But DJ’s kept playing it so much
that he relented,
and switched this to the A-side.
For Real !!!🇮🇹💙🎶🎤🎷
Love the background vocals. I would love to hear them isolated.
You had to wait for this song to randomly come on in the car. Back in the day. My girlfriend and I would go crazy when it came on the radio.
I always ♥ the opening 🎷rift by Junior Walker
This is my happy place every time I hear it!
OMG Celia u ain't never lied.I couldn't have said it better 👏 This beautiful classic just moves one's soul in the right direction 4SURE!!!

Driving my 67 Mustang with this song cranked up, thinking about the love of my life at that time. Some good memories.
This song will never grow old, ever. Love it .
I was 18 when I first heard , still sends chills through me.....and an occasional tear..

There will never be, never could be another, Junior Walker , the Sound, the Memories.
First heard this masterpiece when I was six years old; still listening 54 years later! RIP,Junior 😇
"Gonna blow again fa ya"...Junior's voice just fit this song perfectly. Plus the wail of his Sax just added to the magic. This came out in 69 or 70....but the stereos never did this song justice. Today on some nice speakers...you can hear every note and feel that soul wrenching back beat...just sooo smooth. Thanks Jr and all your AllStars! Miss those innocent days of my mis spent youth.....
Came out in 68, but became a huge hit in Philly Smer of 69, yr of WoodStock, wen I was 12, and a few dudes were fighting in Nam, and remember a neighbor who returned by spring of 69(5/1969) from a back wound, and was suffering from bad flashbacks while near the A Shau Valley where the USAs 101 fought a bitter fight on Hamburger Hill.
I could hear every note when I first heard it. Really, there is only ONE note and that's and its called "soul stirring."😀
Autry Dewalt Mixon and big props to Johnny Bristol, Harvey Fuqua, and Vernon Bullock.(composers, lyricists and producers).
@@scooterbees57 Thanks for shinning some light on the unsung heros of the music genre....THANKS!!

Playing outside of my building in public housing in Brooklyn, and running to the ice cream truck, THIS was the song that stopped me dead in my tracks, at 7 years old, as I felt the Holy Spirit! Amazing Grace and God's Blessings, Forever Thankful 🙏💗 AMEN
Funny…I feel ‘ya!!! At 7???!!!

Totally get it. Unforgettable this music!
Yes, indeed, I was 6 years old and this will forever be my favorite song of all time.

Sweet Thang 💋
I remember when my aunt would play this song and we would be outside on the patio she had a Nice View of Downtown Los Angeles. This was her favorite song at the time. I was13 years old back then.

One of my favorites a long time ago and today!💖
I first listen to this in 1968 -- 1969, and I can say, parents and teens played this. Often they played this together with so much joy and fun. Families worked together with unity and compassion at home or in the park. This song was certainly loved by all types of people back then. Thank you for playing this classic !!!
@ Jeffrey Chandler , yes, I don't think we'll ever have that special time where the music was good and people seemed kinder and gentler!!
AWOOOOW! WORD! BLESSING! MY DEAR! TOO YOUU AND YOUR'S! BEE AND STAY SAFE! 💋
Real talk!
Feel it too don't you?
That's when the world was real Jeffrey and the people in it were real. Now, unfortunately...........
I go back, and hear this on the AM car radio, riding in the family station wagon on a hot summer day. I was 8 years old and life was so simple.
68-73 best years of music and not even close.
1969 was the highwater mark of humanity, not just everyone was blessed by livin therein, but to those that did Jounior highlighted it with all stars' for us all unawares, and to any that did'nt, its still right here, timeless as it was, it still is, just enjoy!
