    When I first heard that intro back in 1967, I was HOOKED!

    Great job. I can say nice job on the “Pistol shuffle” definitely locked it in. I’m pretty sure that Pistol and Uriel both played on that song. Keep up the great work.

    Two drummers! The track did a outstanding job on adding to Aretha Franklin's "Respect"

    Drumming is spot on, audio/visual sync at the start needs to be fixed, please.

      I agree with you 💯 Norman used two drummers a lot. Just check out the end of the Temptation's "Ain't too proud to beg" , Cloud 9 and many more ❤️

      I think both Benny Benjamin and Uriel Jones played on it. One did cymbals and the other did the main rhythm. I can’t remember which tho
