The Gap Band - Yearning For Your Love REACTION

[@monifamortis]

Uncle Charlie and them are LEGENDARY. Must check out "Outstanding" "Burn Rubber On Me", "You dropped a bomb" and "I'm In Love"

[@WSTofKMT]

I feel like they did Outstanding, but not 100% sure.

[@lisaknell1809]

Don’t forget Early in the Morning!

Another few to try - Andy Gibb ,"I just want to be your everything", Hall & Oats, "She's Gone", Con Funk Shun "Love's Train", and Teena Marie, "Oooo Laa Laaa". This is a mix of Blue-Eyed Soul and Soul

[@wndrlnd_4540]

The GAP Band are legendary! Party Train, Early In The Morning, You Dropped a Bomb on Me, Oops Up Side Your Head, and of course Outstanding! All songs you should listen to! Mr. Uncle Charlie Wilson has one of the most distinct voices in music. He's worked with Snoop alot Snoop's Upside Your Head and Signs ft. Justin Timberlake are a couple to listen to. He's still singing too, put out a song just last year with Smokey Robinson called All of My Love. Legend.

The Gap Band III is easily one of the best funk albums ever made. The Gap Band never topped this album but there was some more great stuff to come - one of their best tracks for me was Don't You Leave Me, an album track from the Gap Band VI - a true forgotten gem. Big respect to Charlie who invited me to video chat with him recently for saying nice things about the Gap Band on another video. Class act and a class guy.

I just was not sure about the DJ who I had only gone out with a few times...but confessed early on he had been watching me for a while and really liked me....but I kept blowing him off. I knew he was using that song to talk to me as he knew my old boyfriend was not the one for me....and he was right.......always fond memories when I hear this GAP BAND classic...BTW after he played Yearning for Your Love...he went right into the Gap Bands "Burn Rubber on Me"...he was still talking to me thru the music...will always love you DW
