HERE'S WHAT'S BEING FEATURED IN THIS AUCTION:
A rare 1957 recording of Can't We Talk This Over and The Mambo Of Love by Nolan Strong and the Diablos on Fortune Records number 525 (GBV = $80).
Nolan Strong & The Diablos were a Detroit-based R&B and doo-wop vocal group best know for its hit songs "The Wind" and "Mind Over Matter."
Nolan Strong (1934-1977), the lead vocalist, had an etherially high tenor. Strong's smooth voice, influenced mainly by Clyde McPhatter was, in turn, a primary influence on a young Smokey Robinson. The group, along with label-mates Andre Williams and Nathaniel Mayer, recorded for Fortune Records, a small label in Detroit starting in 1954, and ending somewhere around 1973. Strong has also been an influence on rock and roll bands. In December 2009 Lou Reed, of the influential '60s band The Velvet Underground, told Rolling Stone Magazine editor David Fricke, "If I could really sing, I’d be Nolan Strong" - during an interview at the New York Public Library.
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-Wop Hall of Fame of America.
This record is very clean and in excellent condition. The label is clean and in good condition. Buyer will include $3 for shipping. Thanks!
