I've heard some more sad news from Detroit: Warren Harris, who sang with The Majestics, passed away about 10 days ago. I'm sorry I don't have any details at the moment.
The Majestics had a string of releases on the Chex label in the early 1960s.
My sincere condolences to his family.
Graham

Graham,

What a shame - I've dug the Monitors ever since
finding their album in a cheapo bin in Woolworths
back in '69.

I'll be playing them tonight in tribute to the
passing of a fine singer

Mel,

No - the "I Love Her So Much" group were from
east L.A.

It's one of those much used names - there are
probably ten different groups called the Majestics

Mel and Davie - The (Detroit) Majestics did have a 45 on another label - one of Robert West's - but my brains gone.
Cheers, Graham

Search Forum for "Majestics" and a thread called The Lupine Label lists many of the labels their material was released on.
