[TOMT] (song) 60s song with rock type riff

Hello.

I always used to associate this song with Knock on Wood by Eddie Floyd, because it has a similar vibe (both are great songs). But for the life of me, I just can't remember the title, artist, lyrics... barely anything from this song.

I remember it had a male vocalist, it was in E (for you music theory nerds out there), had a very prominent main riff, and I'm pretty sure it's from the 60s. It's an R&B/soul type thing of the era, but almost like a precursor of modern rock too. That's all I remember.

I would really appreciate it if someone knows it. It's driving me nuts not knowing!

  • Could you maybe record yourself humming the rough tune? Vocaroo is handy for doing that and sharing back here.

    Also, here's a link to Knock on Wood. Good tune, which reminds me a bit of We Are Neighbors by the Chi-Lites

    • I can't remember the tune at all. I tried figuring some of it out on guitar, knowing it's a riff in E. I literally can't remember any notes.

  • No idea but I'm wondering if it's on one of the Northern Soul playlists, look them up on youtube and maybe its one of those songs. If not, hey, Northern Soul!
