ya'll know this song, this song was really the 1st cut to touch on the subject of an Interacial Relationship. great song, great vocals sadly this was the stories only single

released on "Chelsea" fairly decent label which released another good single by a good group called "New york city... thier only single was Im doing fine now"

so if ya know it speak on it...

This song was also done by Hot Chocolate,but the Stories version became a bigger hit.

This is true

Finess, this "old school cut of the day" thing would really do well on the radio. Perhaps you should consider becoming a real d.j.

i am a "real Dj" lets keep this civil since we dont know each other thank you

louie, louie, louie, lou-iiie...i love this song, tho' i haven't heard it in forever. this one radio station back in my hometown used to play this all the time on some '70s show that came on every saturday night.

That WAS civil. I've heard the mixshows, and I don't need to "know" you to have an opinion about them.

well thats your slanted view,im sorry you feel that way, cant please everyone,its turning froma topic to thread jacking, your opinion was noted and the subject is dropped.have a nice day/night

this track is the jam, no doubt about it. i play this song for one of the dancers at the strip club i work at... so i hear it usually about once a week.

I was thinking about this track over the weekend. I never knew the name of it was Brother Louie.

oh yeah Finess. i remember this one. me and a musician buddy
of mine used to do a joke version of this...but we both
dug the song. the "louie louie louie..." hook is hard to
erase out of the mind.

i always thought this would have been a good song for
"rod "THE MOD" stewart.

(i also liked the string arrangement in the cut)

A while back I remember adding this one to that thread about songs that tell a story.

Nice choice!
