Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes - Satisfaction Guaranteed (Official Soul Train Video)

[@tabposey]

I love watching Teddy’s facial expressions. He just draws u in.I love it. I have been going back lately and just enjoying all the old good songs from the best days of my life. I use to listen to all this with my grandmother and her friends when I was a little girls. Music is nothing like it use to b. Music back than was and still is the best ever. Period

[@carrienixon6663]

You ain’t got no reason to be nervous. Cause Teddy Bear’s gonna give you the best of service. He never lied because he definitely gave the world the best of service with all his great music. R.I.P. Teddy, Harold, and the other 2 which I don’t recall their name. Jerry Cummings is the last man standing. Harold Melvin & the blue notes gave us the best of the best in music. They will never be forgotten. 🙏🏾🤎

[@jazzy531]

😅 love it its like he is still sayin it too...teddy 🐻

[@hodell82]

So very glad I grew up during this era and was able to appreciate this music as it was happening! With all the great genres of music there have been over the years, there is NOTHING on earth like 70s R&B, and even more specifically the Philly sound. This music is and always will be the soundtrack of my life.

[@jeremymanning2132]

@@fjacks1189 The Temps were awesome no doubt. But I don't class them as R&B, more old school soul. The music they recorded under Norman Whitfield was pure soul. R&B is a more modern term and covers a wide spectrum of music.

[@phillipwattsjr.4714]

@@jeremymanning2132 I put the Temps over the Bluenotes as well. While most of the Temps hold their own weight and were able to survive when a member leaves. Meanwhile, Teddy carried the Bluenotes on his back and they struggled without him. On the other hand, Harold had more memorable lead performances than Otis ever did!

[@mariajordan940]

[@MrCarltonjsmith]

Yes their choreography game was ALWAYS smooth as goose grease. Almost TOO smooth for this song. The Dramatics would have been flying all over the stage on this one. The Temptations would have been a little more full on and more involved. You know who else had smooth choreography? Another Philly group The Delfonics.

Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes - Satisfaction Guaranteed (Soul Train Video ) Satisfaction is always guaranteed with this great band. They never fail to deliver a great sounding song.

@@all4mePope "Legendary" Lloyd was an "original" (Philly International) Blue Note and co-lead singer with Teddy, way before Cummings. When Lloyd got caught up in "issues" leading to his departure, Harold brought in Cummings to replace him. Brother Lloyd is a very underrated talent who's voice talents date back to 1964-1965. I'm happy to see him performing today like he was 22 again!
