One of the greatest soul anthems I've been privileged to create. Chris Hill made this the all time floorfilling anthem at the Lacy Lady and the Caister Weekenders. Despite its popularity it never crossed over to the pop charts, although many thought it did, due to its sustained longevity, but a later version by Junior Giscombe, did indeed become a hit. But the pride of working with a legend like Chuck Jackson can never be underestimated. Chuck, of course, was a legend long before he signed to Motown, and his three Motown albums were nothing short of pure genius, but at least as far as Great Britain was concerned, this was his biggest ever song. Between 1957 and 1959 he was a member of The Del-Vikings, singing lead on the 1957 release "Willette." It was after leaving them where he had his most success. His hits include "I Don't Want to Cry," "Any Day Now," "I Keep Forgettin'" and "All Over the World".
