The Persuasions beloved friend and baritone, Herbert “Toubo” Rhoad passed away while on tour. Toubo was very shy but there was one song he enjoyed singing lead on. It was Ray Charles’ “You Don’t Know Me” But they never recorded Toubo singing it, so here we have Jerry singing it for him and in memory of him. This album is very different for the group as there is musical accompaniment on several tracks.Additional personnel: Elliot Randall, Jock Bartley (guitars), Jim Pepper, “Blue” Lou Marini (saxophone), Jimmy “Creeper” Smith (piano, keyboards), Steve Conn (keyboards, harmonica), Bill Rich (bass), Rufus Steddy (drums, percussion), Ed Greene, Bernard “Pretty” Purdie (drums).
