    The people who hit the thumbs down have NO soul. I'm from NJ but I have alot of family from DC and all over the DMV. Alot of us also went to HBCUs in the DMV. I attended Hampton University. Go go music is everything. I learned to beat my feet and all from my band mates out of DC. Anything with funk, house, club, or go go beats is a vibe for me. RIP Chuck 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣

    I am from NYC and the very first time I ever heard "go-go" was in 1977 while away at Johnson C.Smith University in Charlotte, NC. The woman who I eventually married and began a family with is from SE Washington, D.C. She was a class behind me when she landed on the yard and I scooped RIGHT AWAY! But it was HER who turned me on to "go-go". Completely blew my mind; I had never heard anything like those beats in my life! I was like, "WTF? What is THIS?" I couldn't stop my body from rocking! Mad props to the indigenous musicians of D.C who truly came with an original style ALL THEIR OWN! Chuck wasn't the only band, either --- there were others. At points during the song, Chuck would turn them drummers loose solo and they would have the crowd in a FRENZY!

      It had a small moment of nationwide and world exposure in the early to mid-80's (Spike Lee having E.U. perform in his film School Daze for example) but guess what also did, Hip-Hop. That's my explanation.

    A lot of people can give themselves nicknames and titles but you can't give yourself The Godfather. That has to be earned and be respected and accepted by all. No disputes. The very thought of you or the sound of your voice has to invoke that in peoples' minds. Chuck Brown has checked all of those boxes. When it comes to Go-Go he truly is the GOAT!

    This is the single best live performance ever. I can't think of another song where the band sounds like they're having this good of a time. Where the audience is READY for participation. The bass player is just knocking this shit out of the park every groove and the brass section is partying. I hear this sober, I feel happy. I hear this drunk on wine, I feel good. I never hear this come on and think "I'm feeling something different today." Thank you, Chuck Brown.

      I would have to totally agree with you! I got into go-go in the 80's and every time I come back to this joint, its like the first time I heard it and it makes me feel the exact same way every time Timeless!
