Jay and the Techniques are from my home town in Allentown PA. I read he has been seriously ill with colon cancer, but the prognosis is good and I pray for his continues recovery. As a kid, around 4 yrs of age, I always loved this song and drove my parents crazy by singing the only part I picked up, "Apple, Peaches Pumkin pie" 🙂

I was studying to be a teacher. I rode an SX200 scooter and loved soul music. This was the soundtrack to my student teaching years. I taught delinquent boys in Liverpool. I had the privilege to be one lad’s best man at his wedding. Unfortunately I stood at the grave of one lad as he was lowered into it having taken 8 bullets to the chest. I couldn’t protect him from the street. I am 67 years of age and now drive a Bentley but I would swap it tomorrow for my old Lambretta. Sublime music like this still provides the soundtrack to my life.

This song came out when I was in elementary school. I rode the bus every day, and the driver had installed a radio, so we listened to station WKIN as we headed to school and home again. The kids, especially the older girls, would sing every word of every hit song. I said to myself: "One day, I want to be the guy on the radio who spins those records." Starting in 1973, in the fall of my senior year of high school (Class of '74), I was. I worked at WKIN for 7 years, and at other stations, for a total of 22 years. Good times, great oldies, fabulous memories ... thanks, in part, to Jay (Proctor) & The Techniques. ❤

Great story bro. That would be my dream job. I still own 2300 CDs . I had about ten thousand pieces of music at one time. Box’s and box’s of 45s and cassettes. 3200 albums. I still keep up with all the new heavy bands of today. No, not the screamers or growling groups, real hard rock groups and old school metal groups of today.?Stoner Rock/ Heavy psyche and doom groups. My dream is to buy a radio station and play REAL ROCK!! Bands from the past 25 years. Thousands of them. 24 hours a day with some old bands thrown in. Have different nights for different kinds of heavy rock groups. Metal nights, Goth Nights, Punk nights, New Romantic nights, Stoner nights, Psychedelic nights, with all of the bands from this century. ……Most Americans know nothing about new groups. We could have one night just playing my favorite band, The Helacopters from Sweden. ‘High Visibility’ & ‘By The Grace Of God’ are two of the best Rock records ever made. Believe me, I know. I know them all. So many new groups coming every day it’s hard for a 67 year old dude to keep up. But with You Tube. I can and it’s free.

@Flat Earth, thanks for sharing your memories of these hide & seek rhymes. I'm a Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania based African American collector of English language children's recreational rhymes and this is the first time I've heard of the "two gallons of water" rhyme. You wrote that you chanted it "the ghetto streets of Boston, massachusetts" and (given the information you shared) this was in the 1960s or early 1970s. For the folkloric record, I'd love to know the race/s of the children who chanted this hide & seek rhyme. Thanks again and thanks to Jay & The Techniques for this song.

Marty Kirschner You are correct. Valerie Simpson, Nick Ashford and Jay Proctor, the lead singer, recorded the background voices. This was common as sessions singers like Ashford and Simpson were replaced on camera by back-up singers. An example is the fact that the Supremes were not the background singers you heard on the records (this was after Florence Ballard was fired the group and Cindy Birdsong replaced her) but they, of course accompanied Diana during live performances.
