5 Royales Story - Think: Part Two 1957-1962 (Uk) [CD]

THE "5" ROYALES fused elements of Gospel, Jump Blues, R&B and Doo-Wop together to become a hugely influential link in the early evolution of R&B, R&R and Soul. They were billed with the "5" in quotation marks, in acknowledgement that they generally comprised six members. The second in a two-volume set, this compilation traces their career from 1957 to 1962, and also includes a handful of sides recorded by bass singer/guitarist/songwriter Lowman Pauling, billed as El Pauling, in conjunction with the group's longtime pianist Royal Abbit. A number of regional and national hits are featured including a trio of songs, 'Think', 'Dedicated To The One I Love' and 'Tell The Truth', which were successfully covered by James Brown, The Shirelles, and Ray Charles, respectively.
