SoulTracks Looks Back: The Spinners remember “Sadie” Live

6152h3pz57l

Back in the 1970s, the Spinners seemed unstoppable, with glorious hit after glorious hit and one of the best live shows around. But in between the hits, the group recorded a tribute to a mother that became one of their most beloved songs and a highlight of every Spinners show. We’re speaking, of course, of the great song “Sadie.”

The studio version of the song is great, but hearing Philippe Wynne performing the lead vocals live is an unforgettable treat.

Experience this lost gem all over again.
