    "comment": "Archie Bell & the Drells' \"Tighten Up\" hit #1 in America 58 years ago today, May 18, 1968. And here's the unbelievable part: Bell was in the U.S. Army when it happened. He'd recorded the song in Houston back in August 1967, shipped out, and was lying in a military hospital in Germany recovering from a leg injury when \"Tighten Up\" topped the charts. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame lists it as the only American #1 by an active Vietnam-era soldier.\n\nhttps://soultracks.com/artist/archie_bell/",
