Winn 1917- Senators - Wedding Bells

Washington-based group The Senators recorded 'Wedding Bells' and 'I Shouldn't Care' (the soulful flipside) for the obscure Winn label around 1964. The label also released a fine record by The Gales ('I Love You') which is equally raw and emotionally charged.

the piano is supposed to simulate wedding bells

The piano works for me.

Sounds kinda dated for '64. They have a 58-60 sound IMO.

The flip ('I Shouldn't Care) which someone else has uploaded on YouTube does sound '64 but it's just as raw. Thanks for your comments on my channel.

The piano adds to the charm of it for me, but I see where you are all coming from.

Nice one there! I had not heard it before and it was certainly a pleasant discovery. Thank you very much.

i don't see the piano as wedding bells at all, it's more just part of an accent to the melody. any knowledgeable producer would not have substituted a piano for the real thing wedding bells thanks soooooooo much for this real nice posting tom d

At first the piano seems out of kilter, but after listening repeatedly, the piano fits as wedding chimes and does add to the raw quality of this gem.
