SOLOE'S OLDIES VOLUME TEN


Back again with another edtiion of Soloe's Oldies. Today we bring you Volume 10. The twenty tracks on this compilation were carefully selected by one of East L.A.'s top notch oldies / soul experts and co-producer of the cd Soloe.

Track 2 of this killer comp features The Whispers singing "I Was Born When You Kissed Me." The group was comprised of:
Nicholas Caldwell, Walter Scott, Wallace 'Scotty' Scott, Marcus Hutson Gordy Harmon (who departed in 1973)
and
Leaveil Degree.
The Whispers were formed in 1963, in the Watts Area, South Central Los Angeles, California, U.S.A.
The group were formed, originally, by Nicholas Caldwell and the late Marcus Hutson as the Eden Singers in 1963.
The group became the Whispers after the Scott twins and Gordy Harmon had been recruited to the ranks.
The Whispers signed to the Dore label and in 1964 released 'I Was Born When You Kissed Me.'
