Excellent Reception with lil’dave | Do The Tighten Up
On today's episode of Excellent Reception, we are looking at a song that, for whatever reason, inspired a seemingly endless stream of reinterpretations. It was a number one hit in the 1960's, but it still has a way of getting the dancing floor moving after all of these years. This song is "Tighten Up" by Archie Bell and The Drells. On this episode, we feature these songs: Archie Bell and The Drells - "Tighten Up pt. 1"Archie Bell and The Drells - "Tighten Up pt. 2"The Classmates version of "Tighten Up"Benny Gordon & The Soul Brothers "Tighten Up" Billy Ball & the Upsetters with Roosevelt Matthews - Tighten Up TighterMaceo with the Flames - "Tighten Up"Chris Columbus and the Swingin Gaites with "Tighten Up '70"Al Escobar & His Orchestra - "Tighten Up"Orchestra Harlow with "Horsin' Up"The New York Latin Scene With Sonny Bravo - "Tighten Up"The Grateful Dead - "Tighten Up Jam"Yo La Tenga - "Tighten Up"R.E.M. - "Tighten Up"Nazz - Loosen UpYellow Magic Orchestra - “Tighten Up (Japanese Gentleman Stand Up Please)”Wally Jump Jr. & The Criminal Element - “Tighten Up (I Just Can’t Stop Dancin’),”?????? - "Tighten Up"
