The People's Choice: I Likes To Do It
1971


The People’s Choice were formed in Philadelphia by Keyboardist Frank Brunson in 1971. The instrumental I Likes To Do It was their debut single, released on the Phil L.A of Soul label in the same year. It pecked at number 38 on the Billboard charts and 9 on the RnB chart. After signing to Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff ‘s Philadelphia International Records they had an even bigger hit with Do It Any Way You Wanna. In 1989 I Likes To Do It was sampled by De La Soul for the track Trend Water on their album 3 Foot High And Rising. Big Ladies Man was the B-Side. Both songs were written by Frank Brunson.
