"A night to remember" is a must listen to, with Jody Watley on lead vocal.
In the _FIRST_ verse. 😉✌🏽
Yes!! A Night to Remember!!
YES ABSOLUTELY A NIGHT TO REMEMBER ❤❤❤❤❤ TAKE CARE 💯👍👍👍👍👍
Yes this is a great song
Jodie Watley had a great voice....
A great pick. The lead singer is Howard Hewett who also had a solo career. The woman is Jody Watley who you've already reacted to as a solo artist. Other song by them are Night To Remember, Make That Move, Dancing In The Sheets, and Dead Giveaway.
I remember my parents playing Shalamar on the record player. But I had no idea that was Jody Watley! You learn something new everyday. 😊
"For The Lover In You"
HH is a BANGING vocalist.
Howie still performs.
Those were the crossover hits. Talk to black folks and they will tell you Take That to The Bank is the Shalimar jam.😂
"For the lover in you" is a must listen. The lead singer on this one is Howard Hewitt, and the female singer is the great Jody Watley.
Their all time wedding ballad!
And for those few millennials that pulled up, Ella Mai’s newish song “This Is” samples Shalamar’s “This Is For The Lover In You”. ✌🏽
One of the BEST songs ever made!!!!
I agree, "For the lover in you" is my favorite song by Shalamar , smooth groove. It was sampled by Andre Nicotina & Messy Marv" *local SF Bay Area rappers Abt 2020 ~ for the player in you.
I thought that was howard
Yes! Jodi Watley and Howard Hewett were apart of this group on Solar Records. A Night To Remember, Dancing in the Sheets, The Lover In You and the Remake with LL Cool J and Babyface, and Make That Move. Jodi Watley and Jeffery Daniels were also a Soul Train Dancers. Alot of history with this group.
Yes, a lot of history! And we lived to see it play out in real time!
Yep
Dancing in the Sheets from Footloose? And Jodi Watley was Looking for a New Love, right?
Howard Hewitt, Jeffrey Daniels and Carolyn Griffey still tour today. Although they were very popular group here. But in the UK they are considered royalty
@@deborahtaylor3617 Howard Hewett had a successful solo career with hits with Show Me and gospel albums too.
PS, yall have done Jody Watley before… you might recognize her here. She and Jeffrey Daniel, the third member of this group met when they were Soul Train dancers. And FUN FACT, Jeffrey is credited with creating the Moonwalk! 😁
They should use Wikipedia before going into these. CYA….LOL
Original moonwalk is often credited to Bill Bailey, 1943.
1955 video recording:
czcams.com/video/Z2kG1KRvFMc/video.html
I remember viewing both Jody and Jeffrey as regular dancers on Soul Train in 1978.
Jeffrey didn’t create the backslide, he was one of the dancers to popularize the dance. The Moonwalk is a circular gliding movement, the backslide has been seen in the 40s.
Shalamar has LOTS of hits!
That’s news to this 80s guy.
This may have been their only pop hit but I think they had several songs on the Soul and R&B charts.
@@chrisoakley5830”Dancing In The Sheets” was also a hit in 1984.
@@wiltchamberlainisthegoat13 You're right, I saw it as I checked out more of the comments. I had forgotten about that one.
The next one should be "(This Is) For The Lover In You" it's definitely one of their best.
Yep.
The lead singers were Howard Hewitt, Jeffery Daniel and Jody Watley, as a group they were pretty successful (3 gold albums!) Jody and Howard went on to have solo careers, Jody Watley really blew up, her debut album went platinum and her sophomore album went gold! They were upbeat pop/r&b type sound, music you could dance to!
Amber & Jay, Jody Whatley is originally from my hometown of Chicago 🏙️. Jody Watley is an American 🇺🇸 singer 👩🎤 , songwriter, and record
producer. She was a member of the R&B group Shalamar before launching a successful solo career in the late 1️⃣9️⃣5️⃣*️⃣s. She started her career as a dancer on Soul mm my Train.

You left out "Dead Giveaway" - my favorite Shalamar song!
Another classic
Howard Hewett, Shalamar's lead singer, was also featured on other songs through the years, like
"I"d Still Say Yes" by Klymaxx, the original "Dolomite" movie, and Shalamar's other hit song
"A Night To Remember"😎
"other hit song"? That would be Dead Giveaway
@@BaccarWozat not in the uk
Yes!!! I've recommended that one, too! His harmonies on "I'd Still Say Yes" are awesome! That last note he hits on the fade out is spectacular!
Howard Hewitt is legitimately one of the most underrated male vocalists ever!! One of my top 20 vocalists ever
💯💯💯💯
Truly!
He also sang on the Klymaxx song, "I'd Still Say Yes."
Yes....the great group with Jody Watley and Howard Hewett, who then each went solo. Jody had a huge string of hits.
Shalamar had some really fun songs! Jody Watley is in this video and was part of the group before going solo. You guys reacted to "Looking For A New Love" by Jody, but check out "Don't You Want Me" and "Some Kind Of Lover", amongst others!
Also "Learn To Say No" a Jody Watley duet with George Michael also from her debut solo record.
Over and Over, Night To Remember and This is For The Lover In You are just a few of my favorites by Shalimar.
Still A Thrill also. The most beautiful video.
Jodey Watley was a regular dancer on soul train & you can see her many times strutting her stuff on the soul train line.
This song brings back fond memories of my disco days!
GREAT SONG......PACKED the dance floors! They had so many hits...Make that move, Night to Remember etc!!!!
They're still going. A few weeks ago they were on This Morning, a popular daytime show here in the UK. I remember seeing them on Top of the Pops, Jeffrey debuted the moonwalk before Michael Jackson made it famous.
The moonwalk was featured on Soul Train years before Jackson did it.
FACT!
@@chrisoakley5830probably by Jeffrey Daniel, who started as a Soul Train dancer.
And Jeffrey Daniels also enthralled the whole of the UK on "Top of the Pops" with the back-slide (moonwalk) in 1982 (a year before Michael Jackson did it). Everybody was trying to do it at school the day after.
I love this song! This is Jody Watley, before her amazing solo career, Jeffrey Daniel, who taught MJ the moonwalk, and Howard Hewett, lead singer! They had a sting of hits in the late seventies and early eighties!Fun fact: Jody and Jeffrey danced together on Soul Train before joining Shalamar and ST host, Don Cornelius picked them for the group!❤❤
Great song that brings back great memories. So glad to see you react to it.
Lead vocals the LEGENDARY Mr Howard Hewitt
Legendary, indeed!!
‘Night to remember’, ‘There it is’, ‘I can make you feel good’ all great Shalamar tracks. Howard Hewett has one of the best soul voices in the business. Mike 🇬🇧🇺🇸
The lead singer is Howard Hewitt who started with this group and the backup singers are former Soul Train dancers in Jody Watley who became a solo artist later on and Jeffrey Daniels who taught MJ the moonwalk. A buddy of mine played bass guitar for them and he later moved on to play bass for Luther Vandross.
She Also Sings A Song Called Everything.
I highly recommend Shalamar’s hit “Dancing In The Sheets”. I don’t know how big or underrated it was but it was in my opinion a fun and enjoyable song I think you enjoy reacting to Rob Squad if you haven’t already reacted to or listened to it.
100%!
Unfortunately, while it was a hit from the _FOOTLOOSE_ soundtrack, Jody and Geoffrey had left the group and were replaced Delisa Davis and Micki Free. ✌🏽
And Take That to the Bank!
😂 Was anymore else yelling at the TV, "Jody Watley! Jody Watley!" Trying to share with them that's she's was part of the 3-some Shalamar? See, we are just family, sharing a throw back video 😅 I'm sure they'll figure it out after reading the comments 😊 ❤❤ memories of my teens
Yup, I did! I believe they were all Soul Train dancers who were formed into Shalimar by the producers of Soul Train. Remember when Jody went solo and became a big 80's artist? Rob Squad should check out some Karyn White too 😊
Next you must do A Night To Remember its another big hit for Shalamar.
Oh this was a huge hit at the skating rink! ❤🔥🛼
You definitely wanna check out the funk and R&B of the SOS Band, Take Your Time (Do It Right). They were out about the same time as Shalimar.
@@luckyleprechaun-mq9in They needs to do that one!
The lead singer is Howard Hewett. I had a major crush on him back in the day. Another group you have to check out is Switch." I Wanna be Closer" and" I Call Your Name" are 2 of their bigger hits.
I have just about given up on them reacting to Switch. Those are two of my favorite songs but There'll Never Be is my personal favorite by Switch.
I love Switch. I Call Your Name is so good.
FINALLLLLYYYYY! 🙌💃🏻
This was such a great song to dance to. I can still do the moves🤣💃🏻💃🏻
Howard Herwitt is the singer, Jodie Watlee is the young lady…and sorry I can’t remember the Second Gentleman.
It’s hard for me to watch this video when I heard that Howard was very cruel to Jodie. But, she went out on her own and did ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!
Shalamar!!!! Now this will be an interesting rabbit hole to go down through. Next Shalamar bangers: Make That Move, A Night To Remember, For The Lover In You.
JEFFERY DANIELS was the one who Michael Jackson hired as a choreographer. So every single move MJ did from Thriller on was Jeffery Daniels. Check out his performance on Top of the Pops when he danced to A Night to Remember and did the moonwalk in 1981, way before Michael.
The lead singer HOWARD HEWITT had a big gospel hit with Say Amen.
JODY WATLEY had some bangers with Don’t You Want Me, Looking For A New Love, Still A Thrill.
So much great music over the decades! I definately took much of it for granted.
Yes, we did. It never occurred to us that this AMAZING musical era would come to an end. 💛
Jay & Amber, For a great instrumental, Billy Preston’s “Outa Space”!!! Billy plays several different keyboards on this very funky song!!!
You said you wanted to do some instrumentals, and this one will get you out of your chairs!!!!
YAAAAAAY! THANK YOU! 🎉😃👏💝 I've been dyin' for you to react to Shalamar and especially to this song! All of us fans, thank you! This song came out in 1979, which was my freshman year in high school, and I STILL can't get enough of it--or them. Howard Hewett's voice is soooooo good! I never got to see them in concert, but this reaction is timely. My musical bucket list will have one more check-off when I get to see Howard one week from tonight in Newport Beach, CA. I'm beside myself! Enjoy going down this rabbit hole, with each incarnation of the band and also Jodi Watley's solo career, which blew up in the mid 80's! Have fun!
Hi Jay and Amber!! So happy that you to finally got to this group! They were essential listening when I was growing up. The next songs by them that you absolutely have to react to are:
"A Night To Remember"
"Take That To The Bank"
"This Is For The Lover In You"
"Make That Move"
"You've Got Me Running"
"Sweeter As The Days Go By"
"Somewhere There's A Love"
"Somethings Never Change"
What’s not to love?❤
A great song by Shalamar is" This Is For The Lover In You. The lead singer is Howard Hewitt who has a great solo song called Say Amen. The Lady in the group is Jody Watley who you have reacted to as a solo artist. Some of her solo songs are Everything, Friends, Don't You Want Me, Real Love, and Some Kind of Lover.
Howard Hewett's solo work is worth a listen
His cover of AWB’s “A Love Of Your Own”. 🔥🔥🔥
Classic soul at its finest ✌🏾
Shalamar was huge not just in the states, but in the UK as well; they sold out Wembly Arena. You must listen to b their songs "This is For The Lover In You", "Make That Move", “I Can Make You Feel Good”, “Over and Over” and A Night To Remember" to name a few.
This is my sister and brother-in-laws song.
She had been divorced and they met back in 1978 as they dated she told him he was her second chance at happiness, get second time around. They were married for 40 yrs till she passed away in 2020. A few mths later he was getting a haircut at Supercuts and the lady cutting his hair had photos on her wall of Shalamar he told her it was his and his wife's song, she told him she was one if their backup singers. He got her autograph and believes it was a sign from my sister. I do too.
Great group great music thank you!
Another great one that brings back memories of my teens. This played often at the roller rink (I went every weekend - so much fun!).
Freakshow on the dance floor! Hubby will LOVE it! You too!Barkays!
Dancing in the Sheets is a fun song by Shalamar from the Footloose soundtrack.
I had forgotten how much I love this song! You two are giving this 54 year old lady so much joy!
YAY!! THANK YOU!
🎶 "Make that Move" "Friends"
"This is for the Lover in you" was great at 💒 weddings
"In the Socket!" Was a Jam 💃🕺
Howard Hewitt lead along with Jody Watley
What a bop
Second time around is pure happiness, love this song .! 🕺🏾
Have this on my workout playlist because it's so upbeat and always makes me smile. Good memories😊
Loved this era. It was my era. 3 or 4 nights of dancing and socializing. Meeting new people. I have one regret from "70's. I didn't live in the moment.
The great thing about music from the 70s, 80s, and 90s , specifically RnB music it just makes you wanna move something. Even if you think you can’t dance, the groove will lift you mind , body n soul. By the way the lead singer name is Howard Hewitt, Jody Watley , and Jeffrey Daniel completing the trio. Try “ Make That Move” and for a change of pace “ This Is For The Lover In You” …. Enjoy.
Shalamar rocked the New Wave style also with my favorite song Dead Giveaway!!!
This 1979 song fit right in with the disco of the period, and Shalamar had a lot of additional hits through the early eighties in both the US and the UK. Their first hit, "Uptown Festival" from 1977, was a medley of sixties R&B hits set to a disco beat. "Take That to the Bank" (1978) and "Make That Move" (1980) are a couple of my favorites of theirs.
That "pew! pew!" sound y'all have noted in a few late seventies disco songs started to be common after the first "Star Wars" movie debuted in 1977. I think it was supposed to sound like some space gun or something. Y'all should listen to Meco's hit 1977 disco version of the "Star Wars" theme. It may have been the first song to feature those "pew! pew!" sounds.
A Night to Remember....and Take That to the Bank! Two absolute BANGERS!
I love Take That to the Bank. Underrated jam.
Don Corneilius the person who started " Soul Train" had a recording studio on the West Coast of USA produced alot of their music.
Loved Amber's reaction when Jay offered to put glitter in her hair. Hope he follows up.
Is that baseball point like that? Baseball reminds me of some exotic dancer doing a butt bump on my lipe doing
I like those bug bump bump. I'm on your lap on my lap on my lap
😅😅😅😅😅
Shalamar were very much seen as a "Produced" group but there is no denying their talent... these are classic songs, my favourites are Take That To The Bank and Right In The Socket. Shalamar were huge in the UK during the early 80's......
Great to see a Shalamar song. I am going to see them in December ,their 40 anniversary tour, a really funky R and B group with great vocals. Other good ones to react to are 'There it is' and 'Night to Remember'. To digress there is a Beatle's song you have to react to 'She's leaving home'-so good!-Colin Ward
YES! Reminds of me of Junior High School. LOVE that you’re reviewing late 70s/early 80s R&B. Keep it up!
Jody Watley and Jeffrey Daniels started out as Soul Train dancers. The lead singer, Howard Hewett, is an amazing singer with a great falsetto. Please check out This Is For The Lover In You! Fun fact: Jeffrey Daniels taught Michael Jackson how to do the backslide, which was renamed the moonwalk. He also was the co-choreographer for MJ’s Bad video.
Listen to the band HEARTSFIELD from the 1970's. The songs Another Man Down, Magic Mood, Racin' The Sun, Honest Junkie. One of the best bands of their genre.
Aaawwww, dating myself here, but brings back memories of my teen years dancing in the discos, LOL. Always loved this song and group; the lead singer has such a great voice. There was also the Hues Corporation with Rock the Boat, another great dance tune.
Next you guys have to react to their song called For the Lover in You. Classic R&B Hit!
1979 was the year of the synare. (That noise you hear on the 1 of every beat). Precursor to Simmons electronic drum pads, which came out shortly after. Ring My Bell, from the same year, also uses this effect
Shalamar is comprised of Howard Hewett, Jody Watley and Jeffrey Daniel. They met when they were all three dancers on Soul Train and the host of Soul Train, Don Cornelius suggested they become an R&B group. They had several hits on the R&B charts throughout the early to mid 80's. The group would eventually split up due to creative differences in the late 80's. Howard Hewett went on to have a solo career with hits on the R&B charts. Jody Watley went on to have a solo career with hits on the R&B and Pop charts. Jeffrey Daniel went on to be a Choreographer and worked with stars such as Michael Jackson, L.L. Cool J, Baby Face, Paul McCartney, Sheena Easton and Vanessa Williams in the late 80's and throughout the 90's. Hit's by Shalamar, Howard Hewett and Jody Watley include:
1. A Night To Remember - Shalamar
2.This Is For The Lover In You - Shalamar
3. Make That Move - Shalamar
4. Dancing In The Sheets - Shalamar
5. Show Me - Howard Hewett
6. I'm For Real - Howard Hewett
7. Once Twice Three Times - Howard Hewett
8. Say Amen - Howard Hewett
9. Don't You Want Me - Jody Watley
10. Real Love - Jody Watley
11. Everything - Jody Watley
12. Some Kind Of Lover - Jody Watley
13. Friends - Jody Watley
14. Still A Thrill - Jody Watley
Glad you guys decided to get back to this style of music, been missing it for the past few weeks...Have even been experiencing withdrawal symptoms...lol...be blessed!
Big hits that I love are "A night to remember" , "Dead Giveaway", "I Can Make You Feel Good", "There It Is"
Wow RIP Robbie Robertson co founder and guitarist for The Band. Classic rockers are going away fast. Thanks to Jay and Amber their music and memories will be around a long time more. Maybe a tribute with The Band’s The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down.
That's Howard Hewett...I've requested him before for his solo stuff. His solo stuff is really good. I hope you guys do more Shalamar, Jodie Watley, and Howard Hewett!
Like many in the early '80's I overlooked Shalamar. Took 'em for granted. Now I can see how good they were.
Their album Friends was a hit from start to finish, every track a smash
3:10 The lead singer's name is Howard Hewett. BTW, the girl in the group is singer Jody Watley, which you reacted to before (one of her songs from her solo career after Shalamar).
They are great! Check out their live performance of "Make That Move."
You haven't done a couple's skate until you've skated to this baby!! Love Shalimar!!
You really have to "Make that Move" down the Shalamar rabbit-hole, "right now, baby".
Beautiful music, beautiful people, beautiful memories!!
Thanks for reaching back to Shalamar! The great Howard Hewett on lead vocals, the fabulous Jody Whatley and Jeffrey Wright were Soul Train dancers before they started the group, They made great music back in the day
Y'all don't even know yet that the lady in the front is Jody Whatley! She had a great career on her own.
Love it ❤🎉
This is one of those songs played at an old school party that will get people on the dance floor. Love it!
Yep , the 70’s and 80’s were such I good time to be young, so much great music , we were spoiled with it, so much that you almost didn’t have to put on an album or cassette, you could just listen to the radio, hit after hit!
Oh, I wanted to share some music trivia with you guys relating to Shalamar. This groups was found and created by Soul Train creator and legend, Don Cornelius, and Dick Griffey (Soul Train's booking agent). It was initially supposed to be a disco-driven group, but then the direction of music changed and so the group became primarily an R&B and funk group. Band members Jody Watley, and Jeffrey Daniels were regular dancers on the Soul Train program before Cornelius chose and asked them to be a part of the group he was forming; for them to sing backup vocals to lead singer Gerald Brown, who left the group quickly and then was replaced by Howard Hewett (who sang the lead vocals in this song, "Second Time Around").
Shalamar!! The lead singer was married to Nia Peoples (a popular 80's actress) for a time. The other two were once Soul Train dancers!!! After they broke up Jodi Watley and Howard Hewitt (the lead singer) had successful solo careers. I think the 3rd guy hosted a dance show in the UK!!
I could see Amber watching “Pretty Little Liars” (Nia Peeples played Shay Mitchell’s mom). ✌🏽
Wow! These songs of My Generation certainly bring back a lot of memories. This song is awesome! Thank you Rob Squad for airing these wonderful time classics and is fun to watch your generation seeing and hearing these songs for the first time. 👍🙂
You need to look into the group Tavares for this era and genre. Some great tunes, Don’t take away the music and Heaven must be missing an angel being just two of them❤. Thank you for the content love seeing your reactions to music I grew up with.
Shalamar are R&B royalty!
This was the JAM back in the day! And still a vibe! Positive, melodic and so danceable. They had several popular songs in late 1970s-early 80s. You should definitely check out a few more of their songs. I recommend in order: A Night To Remember, and For the Lover In You (slow jam), and Make that Move. Shalamar's main singers came from Soul Train as dancers, if I recall, so you see they're nice moves on display here in this video. I loved their sound--Howard Hewitt was a heck of a singer, and Jody Watley had a fantastic sounding voice that brightened every song she sang with them. She had some hits as a solo artist in the 1980s but I always thought her voice was actually better suited to the group dynamic in Shalamar.
Another One I haven't Heard in Decades! Great Choice & Great Reaction, You Guys! :)
Yes!!! Lots of great songs. and their Masterpiece is: "This Is For The Lover In You"
Jay and Amber, I’m thrilled how much you loved this! I love Second Time Around. Thank you! I recommend Shalamar’s Dancing In The Sheets.
Two of the three started of being regular dancers from Soul Train; Jeffrey Daniel and Jody Watley. Two later had solo careers; Jody Watley and Howard Hewett. Great stuff!
The lead vocal is sung by Howard Hewett. The female vocal is sung by an artist you visited once named Jody Watley - Looking for a new love. Jody did one of my all time favorite songs ever. Jody Watley - Don’t you want me (Which is guaranteed to get Jay dancing)
This track was written and produced by Leon Sylvers. He was in a group called "The Sylvers" who were very successful also. Most of his productions were big hits. He was the tops back then. He also played great bass guitar as you can hear on this track.
Shalamar started out in the late 70s, but didnt get recognised till the early 80s. Their top UK songs (which a fabulous btw) are..."A Night To Remember" "There It Is" "I Can Make You Feel Good". All three songs were released on 1982, so that was a real good year for them. We (The UK) loved them. ❤❤❤🎼🎼🎼🎶🎶🎶
“This Is For The Lover In You” is a MUST listen!
Jeffrey Daniel (who sings the high part in the video) was more known for his dancing. He performed what was to become known as the “Moonwalk” and then taught it to Michael Jackson who then went on to do it live when he performed Billy Jean on TV.
Just love when youngins finally hear our music 🎶. Shalamar and especially Dynasty were tge best groups
This was from 1979 so it had some disco in it. You've reacted to the woman in this group not long ago, Jodie Watley to her first solo hit "Looking for a New Love" from 1987. Lead singer Howard Hewett also had a solo career.
Shalamar in absolutely SO underrated band from 80´s . I mean those cathy melodies and hooks, wrap around this thigh Chic kind of guitar/base groove. Masterpiece.
And people they dont make hits like this anymore......Why???
Great song to start with, but this is another tip of the iceberg. Shalamar is a deep closet of music.
"Dancing in the Sheets, Make that Move, This is for the Lover in You, I say Amen, A Night to Remember." Just a few to start.😂😂😂
