People know me for up – tempo songs because of my hits.
I was just about 6 weeks old when we moved to Detroit.
I go out with my band six months of the year and the rest of them with the Blues Brothers.
Everybody had their fans and they were fans of all of them.
The groups, though, were my inspiration way back then. I liked Frankie Lyman and the Teenagers.
Oh yeah, I know Johnnie Bassett. We were part of that whole thing.
I never thought I'd get a chance to sing with Wilson Pickett but we did.
