There was an attempt to get another version of the original Persuaders launched by Richard and Robert Poindexter a few years ago, a new release cd was given to me by the Poindexter Brothers and they still perform . There is a video of the Persuaders performing this year which I will post below.

Here's a video by Robert Poindexter in which he makes claim to royalties from rap performers....slightly off track but quite interesting

It sure as hell was. Beautiful mellow music performed with great style and panache. Thank heavens we have a great body of musical perfection to look back upon.
