so this dude is on the block. sometimes we pay him to do some light work around here, but i found a mp3 of his 45 and played it for him and dude killed it. i mean he sat here and sang at the top of his lungs and hit all the vocal fills. oh man this dude is good. anyways, here's his track. his mom was one of the raelettes and occaisionally he'll cameo with her at the hollywood bowl and such. lim taylor - the worlds in a bad situation

    Ray Charles releated. I got it, liked it, thought hmmm... Ray Charles label, mid 70s, real good, $15... Sold it to a guy in Seattle... You there?

    I think I have a ripped copy of his LP at home. I'll see if I can dig it up.

    Never heard of him. Great song, great backing.

    his mom is mable john who was one of the first to record on motown and was a raelette which explains the ray charles connection.

    That would make Little Willie John his uncle. Never seen Little Willie John mentioned here on the strut, but he is one of my favorites.
