Walking The Dog - Rufus Thomas

Ladies & Gentlemen, here's
The Soul Dynamite Duo!
 Soul Man - Sam & Dave
Can it get any better than that?

Here they are again, 'cause you can't get enough of them
Sam & Dave speeding a little bit the tempo
Soul Man
Live at the Helsinki Culture House in Finland in 1967

Can't sit down 'cause it feels so good
A clearer and extended version of Soul Man
can't do any harm!
Sam & Dave performing "Soul Man" live
in Offenbach, Germany in 1967
Probably the best live act ever along with James Brown!
Watch all these gorgeous women in the front row
I'd kill to have been there!

And you know what?
Here's James Brown!
James Brown performing "Night Train" at the TAMI show
on October 29, 1964
Probably the best stage performance ever
(Sam & Dave 1967 Norway performance of 
"Hold On! I'm Coming" comes close)

Who else than Otis Redding could follow
this wonderful cast of Soul Dynamite artists!
Otis Redding jamming on "Shake" on Ready, Steady, Go! in 1966
with Eric Burdon and Chris Farlowe
They even incorporate the "na, na ,na , na ,na" from
Land Of 1000 Dances !
I can't even imagine the excitement it was for
such great English singers as Eric Burdon and Chris Farlowe
to sing with their idol Otis!
