1971 - I was getting a divorce and becoming extremely happy.  I had a 3 1/2 year old son.  We had a little money but were happy.  But I loved the music and clothing of that time.

Watching "The Chi Lities" on Soul Train while eating breakfast.  ST came on Sasturdays at 11:00 a.m. in its early California years.

In 1971 I was a newly married military wife living with my husband in Darmstadt, Germany.

Celebrating my first birthday. 

 

I love this old school music.  I am still fighting with my niece over the appreciation of funk, soul and R&B.  I even threw out a gimme with Rod Stewart and nothing.

@ECBG 

 

So fab!

 

Love the song and the slow drag dance moves.  The voices!

 

The outfits are perfection...all that natural hair is beautiful and amazing!

 

I was 21 that year.  I'd like to go back!

@J Town Girl  small world - we lived in Darmstadt, too - 2004 - 2006.

 

To answer the question - I was under a year old when this song was released.
