Even though he released a handful of 45's and worked with one of Chicago's heaviest hitters and a name that pops up around here quite often (Gerald Sims), little is known about Lee Charles.
Lee's vocals strike me as having a strong southern grit; perhaps he was a southerner transplanted to Chicago, or perhaps it was another case of the ubiquitous gospel background?
Whatever the back story, this is such a solid mover! Special points added for the fantastic, sassy backing vocals and the powerful breakdown section.
from 1967...
