LONNIE LESTER - AIN'T THAT A SHAME

 (originally posted 1/2008)

Gary, IN's (about 30m from Chicago) Lonnie Lester cut three fantastic and RAW singles in the mid-60's (some copies of this record are billed as Lonnie Lester & Chuck Danzy; Danzy was the saxman) of which this is his first.

This record has a fantastic, late night party atmosphere kind of feel, capped off with a storming, powerful vocal from Mr. Lester.
