I really like G.C Cameron....mayb its his friendly smile and the way he does his falsetto...he is a natural singer...i was born in 1980s but my next door was my primary school teacher and he use to play "its a shame "till in 2002 when i heard the song again i remembered i use to hear it when i was only 5 or 6yrs old. No one lile G.C men!!!

[@dennismonahan7285]

He's cool and still a jewel no one can take that away from him. He also looks great!

PS - If you're out there, GC - I wish some of us guys could look half as good as you do here in this clip after so many years gone by! Congratulations! So nice to see and hear you again. Best wishes.

[@catranger01]

It's a shame the band drowned him out because he's a fantastic singer with such range.

[@50sVintage]

He also served in Viet Nam as a Marine. Bonnet off to you, G.C., and thanks for the great music.

[@tommyboy6457]

Al Green called G.C. Cameron one of the all time great soul singers.

[@bgiovannic]

Actually got introduced to G.C. by a close friend that we shared mutually in Jackson, MS. upon a 3 week visit. Gave me 4 free front row tickets The Spinners concert in Vicksburg in following days. Real nice guy!!

[@zacharyboyd7415]

it's a damn shame this man didn't get the fame he rightly deserve what an awesome he one of my favorite male singers stevie wonder should have done more with him to me it's a crying shame

[@mello60ful]

Not many from his time left God Bless him

[@1agelessbeauty]

WOW:-) that was super sexy!!! the band is sick, in a good way.

[@SCT1949]

Love him, can you imagine him singing some of the vulgar lyrics we have today? No, never. He is still making love to the audience.

[@cmclayton1986]

2:01 - 2:05 😍 2:28 😍 So raw and unfiltered, natural and BEAUTIFUL.

[@brendawilson8208]

I love him singing with Syreeta: 'I Wanna Be By Your Side.' I would listen to that song everyday!

[@dggd]

Love him so...powerful natural super soul man. Don't make 'em like that no mo!

[@wlliebowen2043]

As a I saw GC Cameron when the Spinners lead singer. They even SONGS by Drifters Dells,Temptations. This was a matinee show. THAT WAS A GREAT PERFORMANCE G.C CAMERON SOUND LIKE BEN E KING OF THE DRIFTERS,MARVIN JUNIOR OF THE DELLS,DAVID RUFFIN& DENNIS EDWARDS OF THE TEMPTATIONS. THE BEST LEAD SINGER OF THE SPINNERS.

[@4687878]

Back in the REAL MUSIC days,...yeah G.C. still got it !!!

[@jakko6467]

GC Cameron sang ead on this classic when he was with The Spinners

[@Soulbrother21]

I like when Singers get older and sing better than ever before 👍👍

[@reneewalton3332]

I had the pleasure of speaking with Mr. G.C Cameron on the phone Oct. 19, 2020. I couldn't stop smiling all day!!

[@InnerCityRocker]

WOW!! That 5th Octave Falsetto Is STILL KICKIN' At The Age Of At LEAST 65+!!! Hands DOWN G.C. Cameron Is One Of THEE BEST, Most Energetic, Electrifying And Versatile Soul Singers Of ALL TIME!!! Wish Stevie Could've Worked With Him More Maybe To Give Him More Shine And Notoriety Cause He Should Be CELEBRATED As An ALL TIME GREAT!!! ✊

[@downtownpeggy]

He can still sing like that....maybe better! A classy man with a wonderful smile and voice. It is a delight to know him!

[@ivonneserrano5814]

yes my dear

[@soneal1910]

The band is tight.

[@NickLuigiTales]

The epitome of cool.

[@musicandmovieguy55]

Thank you so much, Wayne, for posting this fantastic performance of GC doing my favorite Spinners hit of all time! Over the decades - had lost all hope that I would ever see him again on stage. Would have been a huge thrill to see him years ago, reunited with all the original Spinners when they were with us. They had such a wonderful and unique soul sound with so many finely crafted hits that I think we will all still be hearing in supermarkets for years to come. Its somewhat sad though - that although many people remember those hits - they don't remember who was responsible for them...The Spinners!

[@williebowen1043]

He did Reunion with the Spinners from 1997-03

[@GenXwarrior]

The GOAT

[@kelvinhall1698]

A super classic wonderful song loaded with that legendary Spinners feel!!!!! Give a Tylenol to anyone who doesn't like this and I am SERIOUS!!!!!!!

[@kayesisslemczeal4547]

The style well dressed! I love it now and I loved it back then. GC Cameron looks great. He's so handsome. You coming to Dallas Tx. I would love to see you and give you the tightest hug. Blessings

[@ronp3000]

Oh I love this!!

[@darlenegist7126]

Love me some G.C. Nobody can sing this Jam but him. It's his and his alone! Super Soul Man! ❤🖤💚 Toast!🍸

[@mitchelldouglass9412]

The drummer ain't playin. Good video. Sounds great

[@stoneyvert2]

The tall guy in the middle of the back up singers was my co-worker, Pete, he was a awesome Firefighter.

[@corinnaweber7554]

Ahhh. What more can you say??

[@derrickbrennan1478]

GC is the man Ho wow. It A Shame is the joint he can sing. So glad to see him. Rick Brennan from Change North Philly Love Peace thank for the Music BRO. 333.

[@armybob50]

I think he sang with the temptations at one time.

[@rickeypoppell833]

He sang lead for The Temptations from 2003 to 2007, and recently has toured with them as a stand-in when Otis Williams needs him. G.C. just doesn't want that grueling lifestyle that comes with touring these days. www.maxwellentertainment.us
