    "comment": "Going out to Nate in Everett!\n\nThis early funk hit served as inspiration for Janet Jackson's 1986 single \"When I Think of You\" and was later sampled by Janet for her 1997 track \"Free Xone\".\n\nArchie Bell became known around the world for for this song, recorded in a session in 1967, along with a number of songs including \"She's My Woman\". Soon afterwards Bell was drafted into the U.S. Army and began serving in Vietnam. The song became a hit in Houston, and sold a million copies by the next year. The line in \"Tighten Up\", \"we dance just as good as we walk\" was a little ironic, given that Bell had been shot in the leg and was consigned to a military hospital bed at the time.\n\nWatch them play it live in 1968: https://youtu.be/11Wd1cc31xI",
