Gino Vannelli - The story behind People Gotta Move

  • To prove to his high school girl friend that he could write a hit song overnight, Gino Vannelli came up with People Gotta Move.
    He remembers, playing his Aria nylon string guitar, screaming out to her “Can’t you just hear the brass?!” when he got to the first chorus.
    But the girl, alas, only could manage to produce a minimal smile. However, a few years later, Herb Alpert from A&M Records believed in its hit potential and signed Gino.
    Don Cornelius invited Gino to perform People Gotta Move on national tv show Soul Train and Stevie Wonder choose him as the opening act for his American tour.
    This mini documentary is a production of Dutch national television company NTR for the highly rewarded Top 2000 a Go Go tv show.

      I got hip to him in 1976 via the, 'Pauper In Paradise' album...this man can sing.

      You may be right, but at the very least they re-recorded the song so that it would only have the instrumentation they were pantomiming with, because that audio version is not from the album or single.

    ...I'm glad that Gino's CLASSIC appearance on "Soul Train" was mentioned, because although he wasn't the 'first' white Artist ("Tubular Bells" instrumentalist Mike Oldfield was), Gino WAS the first to introduce his love for Soul, opening the doors for Bowie, Elton, Go West, Sheena, etc.
