Soul Men (2008): Opening Creditds

The clip opening creditds from Soul Men (2008)

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
They started out singing for pennies on the street corners of Memphis.
Pull the string
And I'll wink at you
I'm your puppet
Mm-hmm, yeah
I'll do funny things
If you want me to
I'm your puppet
I'm yours
To have and to hold
Darling, you've got
Full control
Of your puppet
But by 1972,
Marcus Hooks and the Real Deal
had become one of the biggest R&B acts in the world.
Nothin' like sweet soul music
To bring us together
They played to sellout houses all over the world.
They'd sold 6 million records
and influenced a generation of American musicians.
Dance to the sweet soul music
Yahh
But that all ended on July 24, 1977,
when Marcus Hooks began his solo career
with a dramatic concert at New York's Madison Square Garden.
Ladies and gentlemen,
Marcus Hooks.
Marcus.
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Hey, boy, hi.
Hey, boy, dance.
Yeah.
But while Hooks became a music legend,
the journey took a decidedly different direction
for former band mates Floyd Henderson and Louis Hinds.
Renowned for their signature dance stylings
from their one breakout hit, "Walk in the Park,"
the duo broke up in 1979.
citing creative differences
and a desire to pursue separate projects.
Back off! Freeze!
Get your hands up! Let me see them!
Oh. Wait. Wait, wait. It ain't... Ohh!
