I RECALL WHEN THIS RECORD CAME OUT IN 1967. THIS WAS A WHITE GROUP BUT BOY DO THEY EXUDE SOUL ON THIS RECORD. THE LEAD SINGER, GENE HUGHES CAN SING Y'ALL.
I WAS ALSO STRUCK BY THE SOUTHERN STYLE HORNS AND SOULFUL ORGAN RIFFS.

DOES ANYONE RECALL BEING SWEPT OFF THEIR FEET BY THIS RECORD BACK IN 1967. I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED THIS RECORD.

Absolutely Soul. The song is still one of my all time favs.

I always felt like those horns sounded like they were crying..

The organ solo on this Casinos classic is priceless (Ralph would agree) and the horn arrangement is one of my faves.

I didn't even know the Casinos were white until I saw the CD on Varese Sarabande a few years ago.

Doesn't matter what color - a good soul record is a good soul record.

Mickey Denton apparently joined the group a few months after ".. Goodbye" charted.

Mickey is,of course, a Detroiter who was one
of Harry Balk's artists.

I remember hearing this masterpiece on WWRL
(Super 16) here in NY and til this day, it still
brings chills up and down my musical spine !!!
I love the B side of this cut too called, " I
Still Love You".

Peace,
