Eddie Kendricks - Goin' Up In Smoke (Long Mix)

[@sluggzmcgee6272]

A gospel record in disco form. Unheard of. Eddie killed this!

[@tonystewart4113]

Who’s listening to this jam on 2024? Kinda rings true to what’s going on today…

This should have made the billboard!

[@dirttdog1]

Early 80’s My parents went to work/school some nights.....my aunt would pick me up from school & take me to the bar. I’d be in there listening to all this great music.....and sneaking sips from her Miller high life(can). Wonderful memories 🤦🏽‍♂️🙏🏽

[@claudiahansen4938]

Back in the day. My two favorite songs. This one. And “Girl you need a Change of Mind”.

They're all time great songs that should still be on the airwaves

Man, Eddie was the bomb! There’ll never be another like him. The uniqueness of his voice and style can never be duplicated!! Rest in Power King!!👑

Stop the hate and killing now!!!!Talked to my friend again today.

Very Biblical song right here, From old testament to new. Eddie was my favorite Temptation. House Head for eva CHI TOWN BABY

Damn, I miss the 70's....!

[@johnpetty9310]

Another sweet ol'skool memory popped up while listening to this ... In maybe 78 or 79 an upstairs neighbor used listen to this song SO MUCH 🤣🤣🤣, that her son,MARK, used to walk around singing it ALL DAY LONG 🤣🤣🤣, he was what ... Maybe 7 or 8? Anyways ...RIP MISS MARVA.

[@johnraybey9110]

This brother's voice is an instrument from the MOST HIGH. Such style and grace he had. The 70's was the shit. Prediction of the BLACK INNER CITIES IN 1976..

A true disco anthem, and that arrangement, is perfect. How we all miss E.K.!!! Never get tired of his voice, much like Mavis Staple, another treasure.

[@ookpickable5409]

Wow, what a song!

[@modestyshabazz7916]

Eddie KendricksSong Each day I cry A Little touched me spiritually I get the message in his lyrics I think about the love of God when I listen to that song I think its the music it reminds me of a Gospel Hymn

[@ralphconcepcion3800]

[@ladonnafoster-hayes7297]

This is a Jersey classic. Somebody knows what they're doing when you here this. Zanzibar is what this makes me think of. Disco is the mother of classic club music.

[@gregorycastro3875]

I have not heard this in a long time......The club days in the 70's ....HELLOOOO

[@mikew.andbrad8614]

One of the super songs at the beginning of the DISCO era. Thank you.

Amazing, Eddie Its 2020 I'm Still Listening To This Masterpiece 💋

[@DavidJones-jp4nn]

I was the drummer/vocalist for a very good show-dance band in the later 70's when we would end the night with this tune! And boy did it work! We also had the smoke going crazy with the lights! I wanna be young again! A great era for music!! Eddie was Major League Talant For Sure!

[@nursemcfarlane6655]

Inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame over 25 years ago. Furthermore a pioneer of the disco music with songs Keep on Trucking and a pioneer/ innovater of house music. Listen to Change of mind and you will understand. 12 inch singles. He is an all time great!!!

[@ChrisStevensonPointblank009]

Artists back then put out so much amazing product, that it's hard to remember all of it. I remember the logo to this, but forgot the song until I heard it again. Music to my ears.

[@lisalopez7129]

I love this song since the first time I heard it back in 70s .

[@gabeeskridge8291]

Indeed! This is an incredible song and Mr. Kindricks is quickly becoming my all time favorite.

[@ladyR1969]

Wow, a lot of artists sampled his music! I thought Ten City did it first...shame on me...this is a great damn song...love it love it love it!!!! Go Eddie!!!

[@lionliveson]

One of my all time favorite Soul Singer. R.I.P. Mr. Kendricks!!!

[@robertcanton]

With the world as it is right NOW, some people would say '...we're on the fast train to hell..' remember ...he MADE this track OVER 40 YEARS AGO...and the result of that society's children and baby boomers and their offspring. it may be prophetic...it seems the musical & lyrical revelations were ABUNDANT!!!

[@vandodson4159]

We should have listened to eddie he tried to warn us Detroit van

IM A YOUNG DUDE BUT I LOVE THIS OLD MUSIC AND ITS FUNNY HOW RELEVANT THIS SONG IS FOR EVEN TODAY

[@FriendofDorothy]

actually seems even more relevant today except I suspect it isn't smoke that's the biggest threat, it's our utter dependence on technology . nuclear bombs are old school at this point. now we have global warming, bio-warfare viruses, etc. it's a multiple choice question now how it will all end

Many a summer day sitting in my 66 CHEVY in my PHILADELPHIA neighborhood passing around bottles of Tiger Rose, Boonesfarm and joints. THIS song would come on AS CLOUDS OF POT FLOATED FROM THE CAR WINDOWS; and made me pause and wonder about our future and ask the question BLACK PEOPLE ARE WE GOING UP IN SMOKE? The response was always the same. "WHAT ARE YOU BABALING ABOUT BRO" ? "PASS THE WINE" ...... OH TO BE 18 AGAIN.

Going up in smoke, yaassss, this used to be my jam.

[@Neosoulgroovydude]

Eddie's early motown solo output was pretty solid. You may wanna check out The "My people hold on " original lp as well. I also have his ultimate collection motown cd and it is definitive. There's also a rare 2 cd compilation of the Temptations called The Temptations "One on one", it features the solo output of the group. It has David Ruffin and Dennis Edwards best stuff too.Good hunting.. Peace!

Looking forward to hearing this at the Chicago 2019 Chosen Few House Music Picnic. I always lose my mind when I hear this and Gladys Knight and the Pips "Taste of Bitter love." Forgive me now if I'm absolutely losing my mind in the middle of 40,000 strong house heads. But after being baptized at the Power Plant, Warehouse, LaMirage, Bismarck, Coconuts.
