Hi!
I'm in the process of doing the Luther Ingram story and waiting for him to get well enough for an interview. He's still in the hospital.

Well, we hope he comes out well.

Also, let's not forget Luther's version of "I Spy (for The FBI)", the superior version of the song!

Best,

Mark

Jamo Thomas' version was the one played in my neck of the woods; didn't hear Luther's rendition, which I believe was the original, until the Internet. If Luther's name wasn't on the record you'll never know it was him, he sounds completely different on that than he did on his Stax/KoKo recordings.
