Guest fvr5000 Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 I've been really enjoying both versions of the classic "Ordinary Joe"...Terry Callier and Jasmine Kara. Does anyone know of any other songs that sound like this song? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest fvr5000 Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Jerry Butler if you mean another version Thanks Graham....great version...but I am looking for songs that "sound-like" Ordinary Joe...similar beat-rhythm and melody. Thanks. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Steve G Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 (edited) There's a gospel song on Hob is Gospel by a Chicago group that uses much of the same tune……Greater Bethlehem Young Adult Choir of Chicago "Can you feel the spirit" - pretty good it is too - one to look out for if you don't know it and like a bit of soulful gospel and like choirs singing a contemporary number.

Andreas B Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 "Ordinary Joe" is one of the best tunes ever set to wax. Never tire of hearing it. Here's my vote for a tune with a very similar feel, wonderful LP-only Jerry Butler "Stop Steppin' On My Dreams" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bCveGQYXIG8 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Sunnysoul Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uojzfwMaCho Instrumental but same feel good sound. This is the song's composer Dave Grusin's version from the Winning motion picture soundtrack. As nice as Young Holt Unlimited's version. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
