艺人介绍
by Richie UnterbergerGene Chandler is remembered by the rock & roll audience almost solely for the classic novelty and doo wop-tinged soul ballad Duke of Earl; the unforgettable opening chant of the title leading the way, the song was a number one hit in 1962. Hes esteemed by soul fans as one of the leading exponents of the 60s Chicago soul scene, along with Curtis Mayfield and Jerry Butler. Born Eugene Dixon, he was a member of the doo wop group the Dukays and Duke of Earl was actually a Dukays recording; Dixon was renamed Gene Chandler and the single bore his credit as a solo singer. Chandler never approached the massive pop success of that chart-topper (although he occasionally entered the Top 20), but he was a big star with the R&B audience with straightforward mid-tempo and ballad soul numbers in the mid-60s, many of which were written by Curtis Mayfield and produced by Carl Davis. Chandlers success became more fitful after Mayfield stopped penning material for him, although he enjoyed some late-60s hits and had a monster pop and soul smash in 1970 with Groovy Situation. His last successes were the far less distinguished disco- and dance-influenced R&B hits Get Down (1978) and Does She Have a Friend? (1980).
