I'm Still a Virgin Drake & the En-Solids

Posted by on Fri, Feb 10, 2012 at 1:25 PM

I think I've been watching that awful reality TV show, Cheaters, too much.

Okay, so my interest ain't 'cause'a Cheaters, "Please Leave Me" gets a LOT of play where I go to dance! A right stormer, as they say...

Drake & The En-Solids were a Chicago soul group...um, Morgan Park to be exact, however beyond that I got ZILCH, so I'll let Soul Treats take it away....

Drake & The En-Solids had a few records out on Bill Meeks´small label, Alteen, in the late 60s early 70s. This is to be me the finest one of them {sic}. Meeks (I believe) made his career through producing radiojingles, which makes sense since he then have all the connections with musicians and arrangers that he would need for his Alteen enterprise.

I kinda hate that most kickass rare-ish 45s, are from groups who are basically unknown, but still they're a single thread in the rope that binds it all together.

Hahahahaha...yeah, no...not a new Drake track. I'd never post anything like that anyway, FYI. Way to troll it tho.
