I love these cats and this song, I been on a Stax attack lately, since Isaac's death.

Here's another Mel & Tim cut I like:

Mel & Tim ~ I May Not Be What You Want


also Backfield In Motion, and their cover of Gene Chandlers ~ Groovy Situation is not bad, but I like "The Duke of Earl's" better.

"Keep The Faith" (1974)



The strings kinda remind me of "You Showed Me" by The Turtles.

I need that LP...I've been trying to find a descent copy.. for a price within my budget.

What's amazing is i was listening to a song over the speaker at
work called Good guys only win in the movies and me and a co worker
thought the song was hilarious with the high falsetto and the horse
at the end of the song. So we researched it online and found out that it
was Mel & Tim. I heard of Mel & Tim sparingly but didn't know what they
sang. So i looked up their lp history and saw they sung backfield in motion,
groovy situation, and starting all over again. I said yeah i knew all of these
songs but had no idea who sung them. I always liked starting all over again. That's why i posted it.

I thought this might be about Mel & Kim.

Nice,soulful song from the early 70s Hall and Oates recorded a cover version in 1990.

Good shit from back in the day. Dig those fly collars!
