From Soul Train, I Miss You, one of the best of their 70s tunes. Good to see Johnny Carter 'in the line' making those moves.

Oh yes, yes ,yes! This is a classic, underrated song by the Dells! I found it on a jukebox a few months ago while in Toledo, OH and played it. Everyone seemed to remember it. I certainly did.
Without the [[late) Junior Marvin, we would've never had Teddy and without the Dells in general, a lot of the groups wouldn't have been inspired to do what they did...
A wonderful group; I love the "swapped" vocals. "The Love We Had ..." is perhaps my ultimate "45". We need more Dells CD re-releases.
As you say a wonderful wonderful group. There are so many great tunes to choose from.
We also have to thank 'em for not signing with PIR! Otherwise, we really wouldn't have Teddy.Quote:

You can't call it soul without the dells,i'm very lucky to have seen them perform you only need one word....legends!!
I believe its Marvin Junior, no harm though. :)Quote:

This previously unissued[[!) VeeJay recording from the mid 50s was ahead of its time and foretold their greatness. [[finally made it to vinyl 45 in the 90s I think--not too hard to find, and a precious artifact of soul music history)
