Major Lance - Um Um Um Um Um



I found this recently on eBay. Its a 4-song French EP from Major Lance, and I love these graphics. It contains the songs "Um, Um, Um, Um, Um," "Sweet Music," "Hey Little Girl," and "Crying In The Rain."

Major Lance - Um, Um, Um, Um, Um (MP3)

Most people know his biggest hit, "Monkey Time." He worked closely with Curtis Mayfield throughout the 1960's, and practically everything they did together is worth a listen. Here is a great video of the Major performing "Monkey Time" on Shindig...the dance moves, the clothing...impeccable! There's also an unexpected shot of something about 1:35 in that made me laugh out loud. Its definitely worth watching.

Didn't he also record some R&B romantic/sexy times hits in the late 70's & 80's like "Daddy's Home"? There's another one he did that I can't remember that always made me blush...
