Goosebumps, joy and happy tears. This was great!

[@bogofusion]

Brilliant! Thanks for this fantastic performance and the earlier releases!!!!!

Margaret is my cousin. My late mother was the founder of the group. Cuz can still sing her behind off!

[@adamkastin7963]

It's super unfortunate how little information there is out there on The Cookies. Just such an incredible group. There should be a book about them

[@eightinches6094]

Very cool. They sang on a lot of other artists records.

[@AndySalinger33]

Wow! What an awesome story you have!!! The Cookies were unparalleled!!!! Be well. 🕊

[@LLcoolDel]

@@adamkastin7963 I think the blond lady is singing with BARBARA HARRIS from the Toys. They sing LOVERS CONCERTO still.

I'm glad The Cookies are still together. I remember reading they were performing on a "Oldies Cruise" Ship, but I couldn't afford to go. When they were @ Dimensions Records, they sang backgrounds with Little Eva and Earl-Jean.

The first 45 I ever bought "Don't Say Nothing Bad About My Baby!!!! Thanks for the memories!!!!

[@tombrandt9028]

The joy of this session is infectious. Margaret’s choreography from the past is a big smile. Thanks for sharing!

[@timekeeper46]

I was looking through my 45's and ran across this song by "The Cookies" I used to dance to this as a wee bairn.

[@AndySalinger33]

This is absolutely killer! Real soul. No faking this. This is the real stuff right here.

WHO ARE THE OTHER TWO LADIES?

[@TheBrooklynbodine]

At 3:22, does she say "Gary, you'd better shut your mouth."? Sounds like that's the name she uses on this and the studio version.

[@M-1996A1]

“So girl, you better shut ya mouth”

[@TheBrooklynbodine]

@@M-1996A1 OK, thanks. "Girl" does make more sense than "Gary".

[@user-ux1vj9vx7s]

@@TheBrooklynbodine Thought the song was about you, Huh?

[@TheBrooklynbodine]

@@user-ux1vj9vx7s To paraphrase the Carly Simon song, no, I didn't. It came out shortly before I was born, anyway.

[@user-ux1vj9vx7s]

@@TheBrooklynbodine Hmmmm.. I’m not sure I believe you. How do you usually walk into the party?
