Chee Chee and Peppy ~ I Know I'm In Love You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton | |

i was a teeny, tiny girl when this song was out. i can just remember seeing them on soul train, back before the mighty train used the tsop instrumental as their theme music.
anyway, my mom always pointed to chee chee and peppy when she was trying to get me, my brother and our cousin interested in music. i was in kindergarten, but i sure do remember them and this song.
my mom doesn't remember them at all now, and i'm surprised that you do, mickey! | |

^^^One of my older relatives had this 45. I remember all sorts of forgotten and little known songs. I still have some of my kiddie records like Zoom! and Sesame Street. I've never seen the group on Soul Train though. I wasn't born yet. You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B.

You're certainly an old soul...you pull up stuff even I forget about and I'm probably old enough to be your mom...
You and that daggone Timmy, Prince, in you I found a kindred spirit...Rest In Paradise. | |

I remember this song. It was a duo, of a boy/girl. They sang this on American Bandstand, years ago. Remember being jealous of Chee Chee because she had this big afro/was so pretty. | |
