Hold on I'm Coming - Sam & Dave LIVE!!! - YouTube

A long-time R&B musician, song writer, Gibson 335 and Lowrey B-3 w. Leslie band member sent us the link to this video.

I hadn't seen the video but it's an example of R&B from approx. 64-67 and may have been during the "STAX England tour". Notice the reference to Booker T. & the M.G.'s around time stamp 3:40 or so.

The audience appears to be a mix of English college kids, rockers, and Air Force enlisted personnel dressed in their blues, looking for a good time

With the lyrics "we want you to join us in a great big bottle of gin", the performance is a gem.

The band, the lyrics, the DANCING and stage presence.

I'm bawling.
The flip side of the 45 was let go I came.
