I was at this concert, Leicester De Montfort Hall at the ripe old age of 16, great venue, great band and a fantastic period of my life spent going to concerts, practising air guitar at the Leicester University Rock disco on a Friday night and drinking copious quantities of beer.

This is my era, drinking in the park on warm summer evenings.

Great tune, but I used to hate it coming on in clubs - James fans would all sit down, and you'd be falling over them for the entire song.

Mr Big Stuff is a first rate tune.
True dat. Found it via another tune that sampled it - can't remember that one, but we used to play the hell out of the original.

Rufus' tune isn't from my era as such, but my parents had a bunch of soul records, including "Wattstax", which is just a great album (Staples Singers, Bar Keys, Isaac Hayes...)

1983, I was 21 and set my sights on a way-out-my-league girl and got her, it was a great summer.....................until I cheated on her & quickly got found out. I've got bitter sweet memories of this great summer song.
