I didn't know there was a video performance of this song.

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'm not surprised this was floating out there somewhere. Some of these artists back

then did promo videos for their albums. That also looks like the same Red suit

Larry D was wearing on the cover of Nightcruising.

Don't laugh at my funk
This funk is a serious joint

I've never seen this before. This is my alltime favorite jam from The Barkays and they're throwing down hard in this video. Alright for the guy in the white pants doing the gigolo. Oh honey, if you weren't doing the gigolo back then, you weren't shit. lol

Andy is a four letter word.

Great funky song. Too bad it is not on any greatest hits albums. I just discovered this song recently hearing it at Cheeburger Cheeburger, but this song did not fit it at all with the music that restaurant plays (mostly early 60s and Motown). It's at least ten years after most of the music played. Anyway, it was a great discovery of a great jam, probably their best in my opinion.
