    Lotta memories from the Summer of 75. Sexy song. I was 13 at the time. Turn on the radio that summer and hear this and "Get Down Tonight," "Why Can't We Be Friends," "The Hustle" and other great R&B/dance nuggets. Wasn't it fun the songs back then would come out and grab you and take you in.

      I was 15 and was totally lost in the great music of our times, Redbone was holding court, and then someone said, "Let's do it again", Betty whispered,
      "Tonight is the night" ,,,

    Realizing that "Rockin' Chair" was a huge hit over 30 years (1975) prior to this, I gotta admit, I was almost afraid to give this new version a listen! After hearing it, Mrs. McCrae, baby....you can STILL MAKE THAT CHAIR ROCK! EXCELLENT! Long live the talented, beautiful superstar Gwen McCrae! You got it going on there lady!

      I watch performers from the old days, not hoping they replicate the original; but to celebrate their continued existence, to see that we have traversed through time and continue on the living side.
      So many have moved on,,,

    I dug this song BIG TIME when it hit the airwaves in about '75-76? My dear GOD, Gwen is 64 in this......and sounds like she did when she was half this age. I'm SO happy when a performer is able to keep it like they always had it....giving the middle finger to father time, so to speak. God Bless us all. jbeinarizona

    On this day in 1975 {August 15th} Gwen McCrae performed "Rockin' Chair" on the NBC-TV musical variety late-night program 'The Midnight Special"...
    At the time the song was at #59 on Billboard's Hot Top 100 chart, and just two weeks earlier it had peaked at #9 {for 1 week}, it spent 14 weeks on the Top 100...
    Exactly one year earlier on August 15th, 1974 Gwen's husband George McCrae was at #36 on the Top 100 chart with "Rock Your Baby", one month earlier on July 7th, 1974 it had peaked at #1 {for 2 weeks}...
    Ms. McCrae, born Gwen Mosley, will celebrate her 74th birthday this coming December 21st {2017}...

    Summer '75. WOW! Spent that summer listening to Grand Funk and Jim Croce, with a major crush on Linda Blair! Played the hell out of this song (and others) on my K-Tel albums.Thanks for the memories. Much appreciated from Canada.

    I hope and pray Ms. Gwen gets better and will still be able to perform but if not she's a legend in her own right and her music and talents will always live on.I loved her since I was a kid and to those of you printing the old worn out comments and such,hope you live to get old and be more kind.I say that with love and compassion,be blessed.

    Bought this song in 1974 on a 45, when I was a kid, with my allowance money at JC Penny, and played it non-stop on my record player. She still sounds great at the time of this recording. Wish I could go back.

    • @BugzKiller
      @BugzKiller Рік тому +1

      LOL I bought this the same time is you shortly her husband big hit Rock Your Baby. Both of them songs came out close together I believe! I usually bought my records when the new ones came in on Tuesdays at FW Woolworth, hence the dime store it was called back then.

    • @snapperhead6256
      @snapperhead6256 Рік тому

      @@BugzKiller Yeeup. I had George McCrae’s song ‘Rock Your Baby’ on 45 as well. Another classic. Great era of music! I spent all my allowance $$ on 45s from JC Penney when I was a kid. I had probably every top song from 1971 to 1976 on 45, and sold all of them at a garage sale for $10 years ago, before I knew how much they were worth. What a dummy ha ha !
