Today's artist had a long recording career in which he transferred from doo wop into soul music in the 60s with his soaring falsetto voice. Ted was born in the south and relocated to LA in the doo wop days, but I THINK he was based in Detroit in the mid 60s when this song was recorded (if anyone knows differently, please let me know). This b-side was also made (in)famous by the MC5.
from 1965...
