My buddy who sent this to me said, "I like that he's not beholden to Southern boogie. A little Soul goes a long way."

I'll go along with that. I'm a big fan of Devon's talent. For the life of me I don't know who did this tune originally. Anyone?

Cool, thanks I like this version. I'll even admit to having the Spinners greatest hits.

Cool I always liked this song. I remember hearing it on the bus in junior high.

Thanks for the post rob! Good stuff!

We must be about the same age, StratDal. I remember it being a big hit in the Bay Area around that time as well.

No bus for me, either walked or rode my bike, LOL.

Thank you for posting the video. I think that Devon is currently the most talented Allman. He reminds me so much of Duane on stage. I was fortunate to see the original 6 perform many times from 69-71. The first time that I saw Devon, on a you tube video, I was astonished at how much like Duane he is. Then upon seeing him live...just floored at how good he is. He loves his audience and wants them to have a great time.

I love Devon's music. I like the fact that he makes it on his own talent. He is not trying to ride on his father's coat-tails.
