How good is Time Has Come Today?

or do people prefer the single edit?

It's great, and without parallel--an interracial soul group with an 11-minute anthemic psychedelic top-40 rock hit. I like the shorter version better. I even like the Angry Samoans' version. (The Ramones covered it too.)

I don't know anything else by them.

yeah it's a great song, and I've heard the full version on the radio more than once. I also constantly think this song is actually by War and confuse it with Spill the Wine. Also I just realized that eric burden was in War.

optimo killed it with this one on their psyche out mix iirc

The parent album is quite good and pretty easy to find cheap on the format of your choice. "I Can't Stand It" and "Harlem" were staples at our local Soul Dance Party Nights.

My dad used to play this all the time when I was little.

i do need to listen to that parent album, thanks for the rec.

Pedant alert: it’s “Time Has Come Today.” And it is so good.

Thank you!

Great example of why I should never post a new thread while drunk.

The live disc of Love, Peace and Happiness is HOT

Watching a movie called On the Basis of Sex and they played this song. Always a good thing to hear even a piece of it.

The movie was about Ruth Bader Ginsburg and was petty good.

great to hear this song yet again, even if just some stupid commercial during a football game.

I still haven't seen Spike Lee's Vietnam film, but I think it's used in that.

I like this song, but Iggy Pop hilariously made fun of it on an interview I heard with him and I can't hear it the same way since

"I think a good song for you would be a 55-minute 'Time Has Come Today'...wait a minute, I think that's shorter than the original."
