艺人介绍

by Andrew HamiltonThe Broadways Going, Going, Gone on MGM Records, is an exquisite, lamenting ballad that rode the R&B charts the summer of 1966. It was their first MGM single, and a dandy it was, but the label didnt promote it much and it never climbed into the single digits. The lineup of the group was Ronnie Coleman, Leon Trent, Moe, and Billy Brown. A second single, Sweet and Heavenly Melody, released later that year didnt register and MGM didnt renew the association. As the Uniques, they recorded for Selsom Records in 1960 but disbanded when Brown was drafted in 1963. He reunited with the Uniques upon discharge, who became the Broadways on MGM. After the Broadways, Brown worked for Ford Motors, and enjoyed his light assembly job, but that was before he was asked to join the Moments. Joe Robinson, the owner of All Platinum/Stang Records, fired Mark Green and another Moment as Not on the Outside climbed the charts, and needed replacements; the original Moments only played one gig. With Brown, Al Goodman, and John Morgan, later replaced by Johnny Moore then Harry Ray, the Moments enjoyed a string of R&B hits topped by Love on a Two Way Street. They left All Platinum for Polydor Records and as Ray, Goodman, & Brown scored with Special Lady. RG&B were urban radio and concerts staples well into the 90s, and continued to tour into the next millennium.
