Rare Earth ~ Get Ready (long version) (1969)

"Get Ready" is a Motown song written by Smokey Robinson, which resulted in two hit records for the label: a U.S. No. 29 version by The Temptations in 1966, and a U.S. No. 4 version by Rare Earth in 1970. Their 45 RPM single version sold in excess of a million U.S. copies, earning Rare Earth a Gold certification from the RIAA. (Wikipedia)

How can one get tired of music that only sounds better & better with time, like fine wine. This is NOT an opinion, it's a FACT..

On a envie d'ajouter d'autres commentaires, mais tout a été dit !!!!
La pure musique créative harmonieuse sans assistance électronique
Enfin c'était la belle époque !!!
Imaginez ces mêmes groupes jouaient avec l'amélioration du son qu'on connaît à nos jours ça aurait été encore sublime ❤

[louistaylor]

No cell phone no computer no tablet all in the brains back then and this is what music is all about. And cruising Fremont street on Friday night and Saturday night 1969

[SuperLiftRick]

I'm 61 myself and have never been able to escape the music of the 60's and 70's. Nothing since has touch or affected me like it did back then, thus why I continue to listen to it.

[JoseRodriguez-nilg]

No way, it is what it is . Could anything be better than those years? No. Real talent, real voice real music. I'm 62 and I will never ever listen to anything from today's.

[takemebacks]

Pete Rivera was such an awesome drum player. Rock on Pete !

[josvandencamp]

An absolute masterpiece. Takes me back to my younger years. I'm 69 now.

Un véritable chef d'oeuvre musicale, et que de souvenirs, regrets qu une telle période soit éphémère. Magistrale
