Johnnie Taylor - Who's Making Love | Asia and BJ

[@theNOVEMBERman1116]

Johnnie taylor is another great artist whose music takes me back to my childhood. Check out some more of his songs like running out of lies, last two dollars, everything's out in the open, soul heaven, still called the blues, when she stops askin, we're getting careless with our love, and too many memories.

[@sandraholley9951]

Wow I’m back in time hearing this music with my father sitting around with his friends drinking and hanging out

[@rosemarywatson1231]

You need to hear Cheaper to Keep Her and Disco Lady, also Jody Got Your Girl And Gone. Johnny was tough!

[@denisetowe895]

“If she’s not calling looking for you just know….” You got that right, Asia! 🤣😝

[@leidellgettis7926]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@noreneal7252]

His song “Take care of your homework” is really good with a great message!

[@sueprator9314]

This song cracked us up back in the day and its still funny...and true!

[@dianel222]

One of my favorite memories is riding around blasting Johnnie Taylor’s Eargasm in the car 8-track player. 🔥

[@dogsoldiertoo1099]

Dating myself but I remember when this song was played on the radio and how catchy it was. It's one of those songs I couldn't get out of my head and for days I would catch myself singing that chorus.

[@southernbella6535]

This brings back memories , Great music they dont make them like this anymore. Keep rocking guys :)

[@smbmiller2457]

This is the music that I grew up listening to! Always knew that the topics were real...THANK GOD FOR THE TASTES OF THE AMAZING ADULTS IN MY LIFE AS I GREW UP!

[@angelagoodwin5758]

My mom was a huge fan of this man and his music. Reminds me of the family gatherings we used to have back in the day!

[@cbreez40]

By the way FUN FACT back in the 70s lots of black men didn't care for mr Taylor because they said although his voice was Masterful he told too many secrets.. he has a song STORMY check that out and see if you can guest what rap artist sampled it.. checkout Love Bones as well he name drops other soul singers on that track.. his life story is as complicated as his lyrics..

[@miltonslocum8957]

Yeah, JT definitely putting you on game. And Asia, this song came out in 68. You should check out more of JT. Songs like Getting Careless With Our Love, Cheaper to Keep Her, I Believe in You, and Last Two Dollars. As always I really enjoyed ya'll's reaction!

[@jonathanroot5969]

Asia- “If she ain’t calling you; just know!” TRUTH! 💯💯💯

[@adrianguinn3331]

[@Jules-um4yy]

[@mikeplott4817]

I remember dancing to this song when I was in Army 1968 👍🙏👣

[@blackprix]

Who is making love to your old lady while you were out making love😮. It was a lyric that we all sing loud and clear because that’s not a lyric we had heard before and all the music we listen to! Great song to remember

[@johnalbert6900]

That’s Booker T & the MGs along with Issac Hayes playing behind JT.

[@knuteboy3778]

You just can't beat old soul music. Greatest music ever. It has a healing power.

[@TheBlackWriter]

When I was a kid pulling 45rpm DJ duty at family cookouts some grownup would always request this one.

[@michaelway7936]

This sounded like late 60s funk and soul

[@SquirminHermanthe1eyedGerman]

I still have this on 45 ✌💖☮

[@donaldduck2139]

Johnnie Taylor had a song out in 1976 called 'disco lady' was a big hit, never heard of this one though... also check out Johnny Bristol, I see you reacted to 'Hang on in there baby' he had another big hit around same time called 'You and I' check it out...great songs

[@bridgettedenise]

Great reaction

[@richdiddens4059]

I remember one of the big protests where they had a bunch of cops and/or national guard standing by. The protesters stated singing this but changes the second line to ,"while you're out here guarding us?" It got under the skin of a few of them.

[@scobie4252]

Soul train days! Clarence carter slip away is another good one.

[@rnrsteev]

Now this is soul. Love it. Take care of your woman or this could be the result. 🇨🇦🔥🔥🔥🌟🥇👏👍💖

[@jamomathews9890]

Keep on listening to the old school. You may learn a thing or two. Maybe try listening to backstabbers by the O'jays

[@jamomathews9890]

Cheaper to keeper, Last two dollars, running out of lies, Disco lady is time limited. You'll know it's from the 70''s but it still sounds good

[@user-gt2uf8cq9y]

Another of his songs in this vein, but with an even more turbo charged beat is "I Could Never Be President" .

[@davinsims679]

A good companion song by johnny taylor is When she stops asking.

[@morganmcintosh7859]

Damn y'all!!!! Y'all are so cool 😎..... Y'all know it ain't no game unless you got two players.. what's good for the goose.... Hahaha 😂

[@michaelwilliams-vu2nf]

Cheaper to keep her was my favorite by him

[@bigjay123]

[@scotthughes2914]

Would like you guys to do Johnnie Taylor's Disco Lady which Marvin Gaye called a perfect single. Or even Devl's Gun by CJ & CO which was opening song at Club 54 disco in 1977. Gurantee you will never see oufits like those dudes had again in your lifetime.

[@hillbillyhippie4235]

Nice job y'all, Johnnie Taylor- Soul Heaven and Last Two Dollars are very good

[@carlbaker7242]

Add it up Slick. Great choice.

[@crackert5176]

Too Nice did a great hip hop version of this in the 90s check it out!!✌

[@dougsusie2319]

Yo and Wow guys ! First off, great and fun reaction. You two were jiving and grooving and I was right there with you. I haven't heard this in several decades. I feel that most younger black ones today haven't the slightest clue of the amount of incredible soul music back in the sixties and first half of the seventies that was out there. I mean like big time, major league talent, unlike this stupid BS today. Imagine being a ten year old white kid in 1968 (me) in the back seat of my parents car and on the am radio this shit came over the speaker with that scream and then he let it rip. I'm sure my little head would have been bee bopping around like crazy and at ten no doubt I would have thought that making love would have been a boy and a girl kissing. I know it was late summer of 68 because with some of my birthday money I walked downtown to our GC Murphy's Five &Ten and bought this single and The Beatles single Hey Jude/Revolution. What a great time to be a kid. My parents were children of the depression whose parents both came to America from Croatia at the turn of the century. They were really cool parents and encouraged both my older sister and I to listen to all types of music and to read all books that we enjoyed. I have fond memories of my father in the early 2000's when he was getting up in age calling me every Sunday because there was an hour long radio show on called "Breakfast With The Beatles". He would be like your mother is making breakfast, are you coming over to listen to The Beatles with me? I always went and he was a professional musician for about 30 years and I would enjoy his analysis of the instrument playing and The Beatles vocal harmonies between John, Paul and George. He would hear a song on the show and ask me if I could make a tape of this song and that song off of my CDs' and I said sure. He loved "If I Fell" with Lennon and McCartney's harmonies, he'd say now that's how you sing. Check it out guys from their 1964 album "Hard Days Night" it is a beautiful song and another one that sticks out is 1963's "This Boy" with John, Paul and George's harmonies, check it out guy's, it's a great one. One more I remember is that he loved Harrison's "Here Comes The Sun" he called it a masterpiece of how to write a beautiful song. I think its also my favorite Beatles song too. I remember when you two first started delving into Beatles songs and you did a crappy cover of it and you guys caught some heat for it and I've told you that you need to revisit that one, seriously guys, revisit this one. The 2019 50th anniversary remix of it from their "Abbey Road" with video, it sounds incredible. Also from that album, McCartney's "Oh Darling" he rips the vocals on this one, like tears it up. One more from this record, Lennon's "I Want You (She's So Heavy)" a bluesy rocker and sonically incredible. You guys did "Come Together" already from this one, a Lennon classic. Hell, you two should just listen to the whole damn album, its a masterpiece and what a way to go out as it was the last album they recorded together. You two are the cause for me to do a lot of reminiscing. I guess that's a good thing, so thanks for all of the pleasant memories guys and I truly mean that. Thank You and Peace and Love

[@donaldduck2139]
