I love how far the two of you have come. Amber came on the scene and taught Jay how to appreciate REAL music. At that point, Jay had only loved rap and didn't know how to Listen to music. Jay's ear had no sophistication because it had lacked listening to melodies. Amber lead him by the hand and made him actually listen to the music. Jay, on the other hand, gave Amber confidence. When Amber first showed up on the channel, she was kind of shy. Amber didn't know if people would accept her opinions of the music. Jay took her hand and made her learn that her opinion counts, especially to him. This is now The Jay and Amber show and they each are fully credited for their half of the show. Neither could carry the show alone. "Sniff, sniff...I'm not crying! YOU'RE crying! It gets you right in the heart when they are all grown up."

We lost an amazing singer named Angela Bofill a couple of weeks ago. She was 70, and her style was a cross between jazz and pop. Her voice was heavenly. "I Try", "This Time I'll Be Sweeter", and "Under the Moon and Over the Sky" are some of her best songs. RIP Angela Bofill.🌹

Totally irrelevant -I'd never heard of Holland, Holland and Dozier until as a teenager I listened to a brilliant British artist, Billy Bragg when he released his single Levi Stubbs Tears. "Norman Whitfield and Barett Strong Are here to make everything right with you Holland and Holland and Lamont Dozier too Are here to make it all ok with you"" Find the original on KZbin (Billy Bragg - Levi Stubbs Tears). Its a one-take video of sheer brilliance, including Billys mate Woody playing trumpet live on video for the first time and bricking it. Watch it and don't dare tell me your not impressed..

H-D-H started up two major labels in the wake of leaving Motown. Freda's label was Invictus, also the home of the Chairmen of the Board ("Give Me Just a Little More Time"). The other label was Hot Wax, which featured the Honey Cone ("Want Ads," "One Monkey Don't Stop No Show") and 100 Proof Aged in Soul ("Somebody's Been Sleeping"); also the Flaming Ember ("Westbound Number 9").

@@shaunfoulk7049 You're welcome! I have many more suggestions!!!! Here is just a few!!! Such as a wonderful one hit wonder, MARIA MULDAUR “Midnight at the Oasis”. And others such as another strong female voice featured by a Spanish group Mocedades and the song is "Eres Tu" recorded in 1973 a one hit wonder but what a GREAT song and what a voice!!! It is easy to find the video on KZbin!!!! I don't understand a word of it but it sure sounds wonderful!!!!!!!!! If you were around back, then you know this song but may have forgotten the title and group. I was in college at the time. I also think Jay and Amber would love “El Paso” as it tells a story, and it shows off the incredible range of Marty Robbin’s voice! Also I hope they try a one hit wonder from the 60’s “Pied Piper” by Chrispian St. Peters, Great song!!!! They should try Lenny Welch, “Since I fell for You” and Al Martino “Mary in the Morning” he played Johnny Fontane in the movie “The Godfather”, a smooth classic!!!! I also keep offering up the Great Dionne Warwick, they should check her out too!!!! Hits such as “Do you know the way to San Jose” and “I say a little prayer for you”, and many more!!!! Another one I have suggested in the past is Gene Pitney, he had a slew of hits, like “It hurts to be in Love”, “24 hours from Tulsa” and “The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance”. The movie of the same name was made in1962 Super GREAT cast!!!!! The song by Gene Pitney was supposed to be for the movie, but they got it done too late. For those who happen to hear the song first it mentions two shots rang out one shot made Liberty fall, those of us who have seen the movie understand that line. I am trying not to spoil it for Amber and Jay. A song and a suggestion for the movie channel!!!!!!

Freda was born in Detroit and grew up there and had Holland-Dozier-Holland as friends, but somehow missed signing up with Motown. Instead, she moved to New York in 1963 and did some acting, which continued for many years, in addition to her records. Her other successful hit was Bring the Boys Home (1971), an anti-Vietnam War song. Her famous songwriter friends had left Motown and recruited her for a new label, Impulse, and wrote for her. It was with Impulse that she had her greatest success. Band of Gold was in 1970. Her sister was a replacement singer in the Supremes.

The followup to "Band" was "Bring the Boys Home" which was a poignant plea for the military men during the Vietnam War era to come home safely. It too, is worth a listen, not only for her vocal ability but to feel a little of the angst that many felt when their loved ones were fighting a terrible war. Freda's younger sister was a member of a later (73-77) incarnation of the Supremes.

The most deceiving thing about this song is that Freda Payne is so beautiful I will never believe a man would do this to her. Love this song. Thanks for playing it.

This is pop soul at its early 70s height. The word "groovy" just comes to mind over and over again.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Freda only had one huge hit and this was it. I recommend checking out a couple other one hit wonders from the era: Sylvia’s Pillow Talk and Carol Douglas’ Doctors Orders

My Jamaican wife's mother's maiden name is Payne. So our kids just assumed Freda was family. I think they know by now.

Thank you I suggested this song twice so thanks for reacting to it. As a musician playing weddings people would request this song not realizing it is about a honeymoon night gone bad err limp.

It's funny you mentioned hanging out on the beach. As soon as the song came in it took right to hanging out on Manhattan Beach in Brooklyn. Had our radio, laying back on our towel and this song coming. Got us moving. It was a big hit back then. Never thought about the lyrics, just her voice, music.

This is my favorite song by Freda Payne! It is definitely on my playlist! I love “Bring The Boys Home” as well! She is also an actress. Living Single! Nutty Professor 2: The Klumps! Her sister is Sherrie Payne who was a singer with the SUPREMES! She was married to Gregory Abbott who sings “Shake You Down”. What a talent and she is beautiful as well! Great request and reaction from Jay and Amber! 😎❤️👍🏽

Freda Payne does have the sweetest voice while singing about a heavy topic, as also demonstrated by her early seventies anti-war song "Bring the Boys Home". My mom and aunt used to harmonize beautifully together singing this song.

Another factor that made this good was the orchestral like backing. A full song in all ways. Remember so well when it came out.

As a 9 year old in the summer of '70, I bought the 45. When I hear it, I feel exactly the way I felt then. It's crazy how music can do that to you. 😊

I had never heard of Freda but my family goes to Vegas several times a year. One time in 96 we were there and tbe four tops were at the MGM and i did know and love them and Motown so we went to see them. Freda opened for them and i was really glad she did or who knows when i would jave discovered her

Freda Payne is a great vocalist, other tracks to check out by her are: "Bring The Boys Home", "Deeper and Deeper", "I Wanna See You Soon" with 'Tavares'. Freda's younger sister, Scherrie Payne, was in the Motown group 'The Supremes'. In 2023 'The Women Songwriters Hall of Fame' gave her a 'Lifetime Achievement and Legacy Award', she's also in 'The Rhythm and Blues Music Hall of Fame'.

Freda Payne was a beautiful woman with a voice to match. I remember watching the TV Show, Police Story, Season 3, Episode 17, and the foxy Ms. Payne is in the show as Saralee, a meter maid. This episode also starred Louis Gossett, Jr. & James McEachon as two detectives investigating the murder of two people in a parking lot. Needless to say, Freda Payne made this 16 year old’s night by appearing in a bikini, and was body painted by Louis Gossett, Jr. Thank you, Amber & Jay for finally reacting to this stone cold fox! Another song from Freda Payne to which you should react is, Bring The Boys Home.

This song was a number 2 hit the very month I started my working career here in Sydney in January 1971. I loved her voice, that funky intro and that driving beat - yet she followed up with only one very minor hit (Deeper and Deeper) 6 months later and we never heard of her again.
