Studio One Soul - Otis Gayle "I'll Be Around"

[@sugarfree1894]

It's 1983, I'm in the front room of my folks' house in London, my top boy has turned up on a Sunday evening with this in his jacket. Sparks turn into flames.

[@Shemra]

It's 3:00 am, in a Blues dance, on a Saturday night in 1978, somewhere in the UK, and invariably the selector begins his slide into Motown and the TSOP, with Otis Gayle's "I'll Be Around." Great memories!!

Come in Chronix with 'Majesty '.🇯🇲

[@missy4335]

Same chord sequence as 'Holding on' by Simply Red. This is a beautiful classic

[@danielgoffe7531]

It’s not possible to describe this music in words. Just thanks to everyone for making it and understanding that love can overcome hate. ❤️🌹

I can go this deep cause I had to appreciate The 'FABULOUS' Spinners growing up, and that organ work is the business

[@ncshuriken]

A hurtful and beautiful tune. Brought a tear to my eyes the first time I heard it a few years ago. Even now it still gets me feeling it in my heart. Reggae & Dub will never get old.

[@rogerpeachey2212]

Not while I'm around. Love this stuff.

[@juliengallot6193]

This is our fork in the road Love's last episode There's nowhere to go, oh no You made your choice Now it's up to me To bow out gracefully Though you hold the key, but baby Whenever you call me, I'll be there Whenever you want me, I'll be there Whenever you need me, I'll be there I'll be around I knew just what to say Now I found out today That all the words had slipped away, but I know There's always a chance A tiny spark will remain, yeah And sparks turn into flames And love can burn once again, but I know you know Whenever you call me, I'll be there Whenever you want me, I'll be there Whenever you need me, I'll be there I'll be around, yeah Whenever you call me, I'll be there Whenever you want me, I'll be there Even if I have to crawl, I'll be there I'll be around Just call me on the phone, I'll be there I'll never leave you alone, I'll be there Just call out my name, I know, I know you know I'll be around I'll be standing in a coffin, I'll be there I'll be a-rippin' it up, I'll be there I'll be calling out your name to let you know (whenever you need me) I'll be around

to me this version is better than the original! no knock on the quality of the original at all, I just really dig the organ playing on this and Otis Gayle's voice

[@belleolumide]

[@Ivan.8067]

Da boa 😌😎👍🏻

[@kenj8uk]

Both versions are great...love both ...What would we do if we didnt have music !!!!!

[@ncshuriken]

Life would feel so much more empty and meaningless without music IMO. To me its like a universal language and a kind of emotional medicine, especially the deeper stuff like this.

[@paularob2829]

Yep!

[@topjamrecords1293]

Big classic song by the studio one artist Otis Gayle.🆙️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@wabloWattsy]

this is a true story.

[@Yiddobhoy]

ThrowbackSoul true ☺

[@bennyfraser9686]

100% better as this is the most familiar version, coming from a predominantly reggae childhood/background 😏

[@kgthoughts]

Otis did it justice for sure... but at the end of the day its a COVER so its naturally gonna be easier to work off the model the ORIGINATORS created...

[@daboyprince23]

chronixx just mash up this riddim...coming soon!
