LOVE LOVE LOVE that song!!! It gets played on KISS-FM, which is oldies and today's R&B station. Everytime that song gets played, it is assumed that it's a Latin artist because the beginning and ending guitar has that Latin flavor. I call it Psychedelic, Latin-tinged Soul. lol Definitely has a 60's positive message vibe.

nod Yup, definitely has that feel! Kinda reminds me of Malo, and the stuff that Carlos Santana's brother Jorge would later do...


Malo - "Suavecito"




Jorge Santana - "Love The Way"

Yeah,..this is a cool song. Never dug it as MUCH as Tommy's "Crimson and Clover" but it's cool.

I also like Crimson and Clover better (it's a permanent fixture on my iPod) but it's still good. nod
