Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.

"Not Too Long Ago" by the Uniques-- Part 2: The Uniques

From Wikipedia.

The Uniques were a Louisiana band primarily based there and in Kentucky, active from 1965-1970.  They recorded most of their material at Robin Hood Studios in Tyler, Texas, and released it on Paula Records of Shreveport, Louisiana.  Their two biggest hits were "Not Too Long Ago" and "All These Things."

One of its members was the future country star Joe Stampley, who would re-record these for his country career.  "All These Things" was written by Art Neville.

In the fall of 2010, the group was inducted into the Louisiana Music Hall of Fame during their 45th anniversary tour.  Original members present were Joe Stampley, Bobby Stampley, Ray Mills, Jum Woodford and Mike  Love.
