BOBBIE SMITH AND THE DREAM GIRLS - MR. FINE

Just the kind of groovy, slow burner 45 that makes easing into a new week perhaps a tad bit easier...

The Dream Girls (eventually billed as Bobbie Smith And The..., as seen here) were the first of the Detroit girl groups to record, and they were completely overshadowed by the massive groups that made their home at the Motown family of records at the dawn of the 1960's. This record is a bridge of sorts between the 1950's sound and what was beginning to happen in Detroit at the dawn of the new decade. I love how this record matches the sweet and slick with a raw, bluesy core.

from 1961...
