My favorite Motown song is a Holland-Dozier-Holland opus, but it only "bubbled under" the Billboard Hot 100 for a week before dropping off. It should have made the Top 10, if not #1.

I had only heard the version of that by The Underdogs, a garage rock band.


Great track. It sounds to me like that's Jimmy Jamerson on bass, and probably Benny Benjamin on drums.

I would take Chris Clark any day over Dusty Springfield. Go ahead, flame me.


Would Holland-Dozier-Holland even be the same without Jimmy Jamerson?

The Underdogs-Love's Gone Bad 1967

The zythum section is Motown inspired. Apparently their last album was on Motown, but not sure if this song was part of it.
