This is Nolan Strong & The Diablos :
"The Way You Dog Me Around", (Fortune Records 1955)
This is a Detroit classic, and Andre Williams favorite Nolan tune!
From:
Fortune 518 -The Way You Dog Me Around / Jump Shake & Move- 1955
More on The Diablos:
Nolan Strong & The Diablos were an R&B and doo-wop vocal group best know for its hit songs "The Wind" and "Mind Over Matter." The group recorded for Fortune Records, a small label in Detroit starting in the 1950s.
Nolan Strong, the lead vocalist, had an etherially high, strong tenor voice. Strong's smooth tenor, influenced mainly by Clyde McPhatter, in turn, was a primary influence on a young Smokey Robinson.
The Diablos were inducted into the United In Group Harmony Hall of Fame in 2003. In March 2008 the group was inducted into the Doo-Wopp Hall Of Fame Of America.
Original Diablo, Jay Johnson is still performing!

This is the real stuff and it can't be beat. You'll never hear this again. Those Doo Wop days are over with and its too bad. These guys were from my old neighborhood in Detroit. I am sure this song influenced Jackie Wilson. I approve. Nolan Strong was great..Jackie too.

I can hear the influence for Jackie Wilson's "Stop Doggin' Me Around".
Nobody can Beat Detroit, Mi. Motown USA in the music department. Nobody!
