"She's A Body Mover"
Posted by Hal Bogerd at November 20, 2009 9:53 AMYou know the song with a reworked title. Can you name that tune?
“We were playing at the Blue Note in SA,” remembers Augie Meyers of the Sir Douglas Quintet. “There was a very sexy dancer on the floor, and I said, ‘She’s a body mover.’ So he wrote a song called ‘She’s a Body Mover,’ but the record label would have none of it because they said it sounded nasty. So we changed it to ‘She’s About a Mover.’”
