@mrjoerocco YES that is indeed Nick Marinelli!

[Thedanner1000]

Even 40 plus years after, They still got it!

Yes, the tempo ain't right, but the vocals are quite good (marred only by the bad tempo!). And so what if these guys are white? White people can't sing? Maybe if they had a white drummer it would've been played in the familiar tempo of which we are all accustomed. Touché!

I am the first-call substitute sax player for the back-up band that does them, the Contours, The Marvolettes, etc.and I did a gig with the Shades of Blue near Youngstown, OH. When they walked on stage for their sound check I too said: "Holy shit, you're white!

I guess they were the first white group to be signed to Motown.

They were great to work with. .

[mrjoerocco]

This is not the original Shades of Blue, certainly not Nick Marinelli (Lead), Ernie Dernai (1st tenor), Linda Alan (2nd tenor) and Bob Kerr (baritone). Would love to see originals do this and "Lonely Summer". Whadda say?
