Darry Hanes, mighty neighborly of the president to send you greetings.My sister turned 18 in 1965. My mother told her,"I just thank my lucky stars you weren't a boy!"A step cousin went, won a Purple Heart, and came back alive.One was 1-F, draftable after women, children, old people and the disabled, haha. His brother was 1A, but his number never came up.

"Just Us" was actually two fantastic songwriters - Chip Taylor and Al Gorgioni. Although Chip wrote some of the world's most beautiful balads (and still does) he's probably best known as the author of, of all things, "Wild Thing" by the Troggs! Taylor is the brother of actor Jon Voight and the uncle of Angelina Jolie. Strange world!

Does anyone know where I can see a label scan of Newby's version on the US Blue Cat label. Thanks Geoff

On this day in 1966 {May 14th} Just Us performed this song on the late Dick Clark's American Bandstand... Two months earlier on March 12th it entered Billboard's Hot Top 100; eventually it peaked at #34 and spent 11 weeks in the Top 100... R.I.P. Mr. Clark ...

Absolutely love this! After it was released on Minuteman, the Colpix label reissued it. Just Us made a couple of TV appearances in support of it, and if those clips ever surface, it would be great to see them again. By the way, the flip side of this 45, I Can Save You is a great garage rocker.

@RJColbert: Mine went to Claudia. I wonder if she even remembers. Funny how heartbreakers never assess the damage they do.

Just Us was Chip Taylor and Al Gorgoni. Chip is John Voight's half-brother, and penned Wild Thing and Angel of the Morning. They later teamed up with Trade Martin and recorded an album as "Gorgoni, Martin and Taylor"

OMG How I love this song. No other song can express my childhood love better than this song. I had a LP which I listened to again and again.
