The Dynamic Superiors -- "Happy Song"




Sunday! We all deserve to feel happy, easy, and free. So, here's the right song for the occasion by the Dynamic Superiors. Vocal harmony of the finest quality -- that was their trademark. "Shoe Shoe Shine" probably is their best known song. Also hats off to the lead vocalist, Tony Washington, who back in the seventies did not hide his being gay -- that was definitely a big deal. The group formed in Washington, DC in 1963 and released 4 albums for Motown in the mid 70's.

Happy Song

There is a digitally remastered expanded edition available at Amazon.com. I usually shy away from digitally altered music because most of the time it sounds awfully unnatural to my ears.
