Ink Spots--Stranger In Paradiase

When Charlie Fuqua left Bill Kenny's group, he sang with Deek Watson in group DW #3.

Leon Antoine replaced Deek and this group had a successful recording career with King Records. Antoine and Essex or Essix (spelled both ways) seemed to alternate recordings and the King labels listed the group members on the label. The first record lists no members but the 2nd thru 4th list Antoine. The next two list Scott and the Antoine returns. They released 9 singles in all and all are quite good. 'Melody Of Love' is recorded twice, once with a saxophone break and once without.

Why not? It's kind of like a signature lick. You know right away usually who it is.

this would fit so well when you find "paradise" sign in fallout 3 , and then the radio pipboy plays this song ,

Jimmy Holmes is an incredible singer. Once you hear him, you'll never forget him. I just wish there were more recordings of him once this version of the Ink Spots disbanded.

If music like this only played to the radio nowadays, there wouldn't be anywhere near the number of problems in the world that there are now. It really is a shame that artists like gaga or lil wayne get millions of views.
