I'll be 70 yrs of age soon, but this song has never lost it's appeal to me, nor failed to resonate - taking me back to my teen years. My best friend Gene and I tore up the roads of SW Wisconsin, playing this tune on the radio and 8 track. Gene has gone home now, having surrendered to dementia in Nov 2019. RIP Gene, and thank you for your friendship. You were genuine. Blessings on you.
This song brings back some of my childhood memories. I remember on a Friday my mom would give me a nickel to go to the corner store to buy whatever I wanted. As I walked 2 or 3 blocks, I could here this song bellowing out of many windows. Everyone was having a Friday, pay day party...lol
Well, I should hope so, how could (or would) anyone forget it? It's wonderful that you still have your memories, I'm only 70s and I hope I keep mine as long as you!
I just turned 60 on the fifth of October. I was going rough patch in my in late 20's. I was in the bar and this song came on the juke box. I sat there listening to this song and watching a older couple dancing and smiling having a good time.. and they were smiling
My brother died 2 days before Christmas, 2015. He was 66. When this song was new, he listened to it on the car radio and the 8 track player. He had the words "Slip Away" tatooted on his arm... this is for Ernie Crisp, RIP big brother, RIP.
Maybe i too old,dont like change,etc.I was raised on hard rock to motown.i just dont care for todays music.Todays music is not sang or played with soul,from the heart,and not giving all they got. Back in our days it was.Back in our days music would move you physicaly and emotionaly.I dont see that or get that feeling in todays music
Muscle Shoals, baby! Could those boys play a lick or two or what? And Clarence Carter - what an amazing performer he was back then. Bet he's still a pistol now, even though he's getting on in years now. Lots of great memories listening to his music over the years.
I will listen to this music for the rest of my life. Kills me to think when the greats like Clarence Carter are gone the music will die. None of the artists of today can even touch him.
I remember this song as a child. My folks had this album. I really miss my parents and my youth. This song brings back precious memories of my childhood.
Me too. Remember Garland Greene's Jealous Kind of fella? And Tyrone Davis' Turn back the hands of time? That was my trio everyday after getting home from junior high school. The days bro, those days!!!
Yes but it's all adultery. He wants this married woman to sneak away from her husband and make love to him. After that comes the murder, just look at Forensic Files. The jealous spouse murders the unfaithful one, or the unfaithful one murders the faithful one. Happens both ways.
Great song. Good to dance to, also love, love, to sing to. I will put on repeat for over 1 hour. Utube thanks for the great variety you have to choose from.
Such a memorable song. July 1968 basic training San Antonio. This was played at a dance they let us attend and it was our first contact with the women going through basic training too. I’ll never forget this song or the slow dance. The only other song I remember was “Tighten Up’ by Archie Bell and the Drells. Great songs and a great memory of such a dramatic change in my life.
Long Beach, CA. 1968, cruising in my yellow and black’66 Mustang, totally into this song and the illicit love affair, in the song and in my life then. Time changes life events but the memory of that love and this song remain. Sounds so fine.
In July 1983 I met my wife. She was arguably the most intelligent and beautiful woman I had ever met. She was dating another guy at the time and I was a studying for the priesthood at a Russian Orthodox seminary...not the most optimum scenario for a relationship. Anyway, this song (from what I remembered from when I was in 8th grade, fall 1968) gave me courage. 37 years and two kids and two grandkids later, I am still very grateful.
76 now and this is my favorite since the first time I heard it.....Only thing slipping away now is time...Miss my past loves and friends....We thought we would be young forever.....
I haven't heard this song in so long... Brings back so many memories of a love I lost and never found again. He passed away a few years ago but we always knew we wanted to be together but I walked away.
This song is one of the few things that kept me sane during boot camp in the sweltering summer of 1968 at the absolute armpit of the Army -- Fort Polk, Louisiana. God how I hated the Army. Lot of the guys I went through with never came back from 'Nam. Damn shame.
.....I was at Fort Polk in 1967..........it was the Shits.......loL................made it back from the Nam.....archie Bell was in my platoon.....loL.........
Give the Drummer some! Wilbur Terrell was not only the drummer on his tune but he shares writing credits with 2 other. He graduated from my alma mater, GW Carver High in Carrollton, GA, in the late 1950’s. He and a bunch of HS pals formed a party band and played all the proms and big dances. He hooked up with Clarence Carter band soon after graduation and played with him through the 70’s! RIP WT!
It's crazy how as a little girl I watched my aunt and uncle, dance off this song and now my kids are watching me listening to the same song I hope that keep the classics legacy going
Fantastic! I remember when this song was on the radio.....a breath of fresh air in the middle of the psychodelic era. Somehow this song broke through every market and reached number 8 on the nation wide charts in August of 68.
there was an AM radio station near where i lived WOOL ,and a disc jockey named the Moon Man who would play all the good songs like this 3, 4 times in a row also played Rock your baby by George Mccrae 7 times in a row.
WOW,THAT SONG STILL SOUNDS GREAT, I LOVE EVERY SONG THAT I'VE HEARD CLARENCE CARTER SANG AND HE'S STILL ONE OF MY FAVORITE SINGERS EVER, HAPPY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU CLARENCE CARTER.
Heard this for the first time today. Damn that boy is good! No computer can add feeling like that to a track. Put down your headphones and crank this one at full volume so that everybody can learn a little about what true music should sound like!
I heard this for the first time 46 years and 3 months ago when my grandfather took my brother and I to a party in his little southern town........great memories.
This song is one of the BEST "soul" songs I've EVER heard of. Plus the 6th chord in the D flat major chord really adds A LOT of style to the song...and going back to back between THAT chord and the G flat major chord. The 60s and 70s classic soul songs had some of the BEST styles and the way how they did their music.
Heard a blues band play his masterpiece last night at a home days and it brought back such great childhood memories. This original by Mr. Carter is the best.
Wow this song got so much memories in it and it was me and my X husband Michael song 💕 God rest his soul Thanks for playing it I will always 😍 this song so Romantic Special And was our First Song Together 💕
It’s hard to make a comment to accurately reflect my respect for this mans talent. We have lost our way in so many ways but music like this is timeless. Most younger people have no clue as to what their missing. Soul music for the soul.
This is my momma& daddy's song.We had many wonderful times off of this song ,my dad left May 12TH 2003,my mom left May 28,2013,she was 11 & he was 15 when they married,they were together for 48yrs.,I miss them,but now they are together forever ! love you mom& dad FORVER !
WOW!!! Great Story, may they both R.I.P. together. Just like mines too. This song reminds me of my Moms mostly because she played the 45's everyday and danced her butt off while my pops was crashed out drunk on the couch. SOOO Funny! but they both R.I.P. just as yours. God bless You, and our Parents.
thanks for responding,these songs bought back many memories of our past,my mom & dad truly loved each other,just like romeo&juliet,now there are together forever,true love like that now is hard to find,my dad was a hard worker worked up until a week before he died,and never let us know he was sick,my mom was he's everything,whatever she wanted she got,where are the men like that now ? thanks for posting! g
This song takes me back to my childhood. It was the Summer of 1968. On my mother's day off we would go to Jack's Beach Shack in Galveston, TX & this song was a popular song on the jukebox. I didn't know what the lyrics meant at that time. I just liked the song. I asked my mother what does that song mean. She told me one day when you get grown you will understand. I do now of course but it takes me back to my younger years.
Every time I hear CC’s Slip Away, I love it more… Opening guitar sets the tone. I believe Duane Allman played the riff that was on a loop throughout the song. 2023 and still listening. ❤ that guitar riff and sax.
We stay off Wade Park with my dad and stepmother and 6 sisters. This was my father's favorite song in the late 60's. When I hear this it bring back many sweet memories. R. I. P Dad B. K. A Slim
I toured with Clarence for the briefest moment in time, back around '96. Among the greatest joys of my life. Among other things, Clarence said: "they got star 69 now, they'll find your ass"!
This song was my dad's favorite he use to play when he was stealing to meet her back in the 60s lol he played it for her❤ their song. May the both continue to rest in heaven. Dancing together
When I was a young girl my mom would play this 45 record over & over and I didn't understand his lyrics and did not know the meaning I am 61 now and I understand. LOL💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃 Heyyyyyyyyyy🌷🌷🌷🌷
Here before Mafia 3 93 baby Tennessee raised This song bring back memories watching my grandfather dip his snuff and talk his shit slamming dominos at family gatherings he always had a fifth of Hennessy near and strong smell of after shave those was the days when there wasn’t much but it was simple.
Sunday songs of my youth after church, there was no tv allowed at this time just cards, games and music. Mom & Dad played a lot of Motown amongst others.
Lord what I would give to go back to this era and have this music in my life again, yea it's 2024 and I am still listening to this

the opening licks of this song are simply the sweetest ever on record...a true masterpiece of soul
A symphony!
this was recorded at Fame Studios with the Swampers. duanne Allman gets credit for the guitar part tho it doesn't sound like his normal style.

Peace and mercy to you child....❤
Please be saved...I am here outside Buffalo NY. Peace and mercy always to a brother. I hope you getting see the sunshine❤.jan

Same here...
I LOVE THE ANGST & DESPERATION IN CLARENCE’S VOICE, EXPLAINING HOW MUCH HE LOVES THIS LADY… GETS ME EVERY TIME… GOOSEBUMPS. 🇨🇦
Yes but it's all adultery. He wants this married woman to sneak away from her husband and make love to him. After that comes the murder, just look at Forensic Files. The jealous spouse murders the unfaithful one, or the unfaithful one murders the faithful one. Happens both ways.

Harold Melvin got me laid even when I wasn't in the mood. Barry White was also a major panty-dropper.
About to lookup that Tighten Up song lol
Funny how a song will take you right back to a specific time…just a few notes and fifty years disappear.
Great song!!!
Such a great era when music touched the depth of your soul
Long Beach, CA. 1968, cruising in my yellow and black’66 Mustang, totally into this song and the illicit love affair, in the song and in my life then. Time changes life events but the memory of that love and this song remain. Sounds so fine.

This is "SOUL MUSIC" in it's purist form. "Music From The Soul, Music For The Soul".
This song takes me back to my childhood. It was the Summer of 1968. On my mother's day off we would go to Jack's Beach Shack in Galveston, TX & this song was a popular song on the jukebox.
I didn't know what the lyrics meant at that time. I just liked the song. I asked my mother what does that song mean. She told me one day when you get grown you will understand.
I do now of course but it takes me back to my younger years.
now this really takes me back"how sweet it is........

He's The best blues man ever I've seen him several times and i was not disappointed and he's really a great guy
Every time I hear CC’s Slip Away, I love it more…
Opening guitar sets the tone. I believe Duane Allman played the riff that was on a loop throughout the song.
2023 and still listening. ❤ that guitar riff and sax.

I toured with Clarence for the briefest moment in time, back around '96. Among the greatest joys of my life. Among other things, Clarence said: "they got star 69 now, they'll find your ass"!

Here before Mafia 3 93 baby Tennessee raised This song bring back memories watching my grandfather dip his snuff and talk his shit slamming dominos at family gatherings he always had a fifth of Hennessy near and strong smell of after shave those was the days when there wasn’t much but it was simple.
Oh my, long time I didnt hear this masterpiece, it brings back the memories when music was beautiful.
Sunday songs of my youth after church, there was no tv allowed at this time just cards, games and music. Mom & Dad played a lot of Motown amongst others.
