All thumbs up...!!!

Well crafted song, with subtle chord changes that belie it's seeming simplicity.

As noted above, on this day in 1960 {August 27th} Lloyd Price performed "Question" on the ABC-TV program, 'The Dick Clark Saturday Night Beech-Nut Show'... At the time "Question" was at position #29 on Billboard's Hot Top 100 chart, two weeks earlier it had peaked at #19 {for 1 week} and it spent eleven weeks on the Top 100... It reached #5 {for 2 weeks} on Billboard's Hot R&B Singles chart... Between 1952 and 1976 the Kenner, Louisiana native had twenty two records on the Hot R&B Singles chart, twelve made the Top 10 with four* reaching #1, "Lawdy Miss Clawdy" for 7 weeks in 1952, "Stagger Lee" for 4 weeks in 1959, "Personality" for 4 weeks in 1959, and "I'm Gonna Get Married" for 3 non-consecutive weeks in 1959... Mr. Price will celebrate his 87th birthday this coming March 9th, 2020... * He just missed having a fifth #1 record when his "Come Into My Heart" peaked at #2 {for 2 non-consecutive weeks} in 1959, the first week it was at #2, the #1 record for that week was "Don't You Know" by Della Reese and for it's second week at #2, "So Many Ways" by Brook Benton was in the top spot ...

I never knew that Lloyd Price had this hit! And, I also did not know that Lloyd Price was a prolific entrepreneur. In addition to his music production and publication ownership, he started and owned businesses in various industries. He owned two construction companies, erecting middle-income housing in the 1980s in the Bronx and also homes in Staten Island. He managed Global Icon Brands (a.k.a. Lloyd Price Icon Food Brands), which makes a line of Southern-style foods, including Lawdy Miss Clawdy food products, ranging from canned greens to sweet potato cookies, and a line of Lloyd Price foods, such as Lloyd Price's Soulful 'n' Smooth Grits and Lloyd Price's Energy-2-Eat Bar, plus Lawdy Miss Clawdy clothing and collectibles.

Underrated song

[@codyallen2838]

I love this song, but there's something on his face. He's holding that big smile as if he were expected too.

[@flomurdock]

He always had that smile. Forever. It defines him.

[@bounceday]

i want to be this person. I want his adversity.

ハスキンから辿り着いたのは自分だけかなｗ だいぶアレンジしてるけどかすかに面影があるね

[@Target_Buster]

He's a good lip syncer

[@darcharge]

on TV in the 50s and 60s. Everybody did. and it wasn't there choice, it was the labels.

[@Target_Buster]

KillShotx7 Yeah, but not everyone back then was good.

T-Bus damn that’s crazy but I don’t remember asking

[@Goldenrod01]

@@muichiroosimp5956 I didn’t realise T-bus has to be asked by you before they write anything. What makes you so important?

[@swankyswig51]

I like Lloyd Price but PJ Proby Owns this song!! He sings it with much more emotion. He rocks it!

[@ronniemoon57]

Pj Proby DOES NOT own that song. Lloyd Price does, and sings it far better.
