    Written by unsung, legendary blue-eyed soul man Jim Ford. Sly Stone once called Jim "the baddest white man on the planet." He should have been a massive, massive star. Try reacting to "I'm Gonna Make Her Love Me" or "It's My Life." The man lived with Bobbie Gentry before she became a star and it reflected badly on him that he tried to take partial credit for the song, "Ode to Billie Joe." But, he really was a great singer-songwriter in his own right. But drugs pretty much destroyed him.

    • @randymccloud5743
      @randymccloud5743 Před 6 měsíci

      Drugs did not "destroy" Bobby Womack. That is a very false narrative. Bobby recorded, and toured right up until the time he became too sick to do so. He died at home, at the age of 70 suffering from cancer...diabeties...Alzheimer's, as well as other non-drug related health issues. He stopped using drugs in the late eighties. He was very candid about his heavy drug use in the 60's, 70's and wrote about it in his memoir. He had a long, and very successful career before....and after his drug use stopped.

He also was one of greatest guitarists of all time, playing for many artists. He also wrote many songs for other artists like I'm In Love by Wilson Pickett and It's All Over Now by the Rolling Stones. A truly legendary artist.

    It's a story song, but a sad, tragic one. Absolutely a retro pop classic.

    Background and Inspiration:
    The song was loosely based on Bobby’s brother’s carefree behavior. It was originally recorded as a funny tribute to his brother, bass guitarist Harry Womack.
    Harry lived a carefree life and often expressed a desire to live on an Indian reservation. The song playfully captured this aspect of his personality.
    Tragically, Harry Womack was killed by his girlfriend during a fight in 1974. The song’s tone shifted from lighthearted to poignant after this devastating event.

    Would love it if you could react to some Northern Soul tracks:
    Some suggestions: Do I Love You (Indeed I Do) by Frank Wilson, "I Want My Baby Back" by Stevie Wonder, "Tainted Love" by Gloria Jones, "On The Floor" by Dobie Gray and "If It's All The Same To You" by Luther Ingram. There are many more that I'm sure if any Northern Soulees pick up on this thread.
    I just thought it was high time that us Brits returned some of these great tracks back to you, these were Soul rarities or flops that a few DJ's made trips to America to search for in the record shops in bargain basements and brought them to dance clubs predominantly in the North of England. They've been giving me joy for the last few years and I thought it was only fair to share these with the best music reactors on CZcams.
    There's also been a movie made called, "Northern Soul" and there's a BBC documentary that someone has posted to CZcams called "Living for the Weekend" that will give you a potted idea of the scene back in the day. What I find really endearing about the whole scene is how artists that thought their track(s) didn't make a dent in America some not even fully released find out sometimes 5, 10 even 40, 50 years later that a tune that they'd long forgot about recording, find out it at been absolutely smashing it in clubs in Northern England and some of them contacted to perform live years later in the UK. ❤️

    "Across 110th Street" is a must. However, if you've seen the movie Jackie Brown, you've already heard it.

    Bobby was known as "The Poet" for his heart-felt, soul rending, songwriting. One of my all-time favorite artists! Check out "A Woman's Got To Have It" Rob will definitely love the walking bass line in this one!!

    I think you guys would really dig his jam “Facts of life” like Amber would say “So good”🤣

    Glad you touched music royalty again...song about Bobby's brother. What a thrill for you discovering this amazing singer/songwriter.
    Made that same journey myself 52 years ago.
    You say more "womagic" suggestions try I'm Through Trying To Prove My Love To You...and Superstar.
    Love from the UK.

    One of the great soul voices and soul songwriters of the '70s and '80s. A few other good Womack tunes to check out include: Nobody Wants You When You're Down and Out; That's the Way I Feel 'Bout Cha; A Woman's Gotta Have It; Across 110th Street; and How I Miss You Baby.

    Bobby comes from a talented family. He and his older brothers formed a group called the Womack Brothers when Bobby was only 10 years old that featured his mother on organ and his father on guitar., who performed mostly gospel songs. Bobby married Sam Cooke's widow only three months after his murder. His youngest brother Cecil married Sam Cooke's daughter and sang as a duet Womack and Womack. Cecil co-wrote the song T.K.O. in which Teddy Pendergrass turned into a number 2 hit on the Billboard R&B charts, renamed Love T.K.O.. You should give a listen to Womack and Womack. T.K.O. and Starbright are a couple of my favorites.

    In my opinion, his best song! So, I'll give you that one. It's a good chance you hadn't heard that before

    Check out Todd Rundgren’s “For The Want of a Nail” which features Mr. Womack.
