They were on L.A.'s Highland Records. I believe the group was from South Central L.A., too.

Mike & The Censations
What a great group I really dig their song "There's Nothing I Can Do About It"; it got a lot of air play in the summer of 1967 in Los Angeles. Their song "Victim Of Circumstance" was also a great jam. Kev it would be great to find out whatever happen to this long forgotten group, thanks for bringing them up.

Hi this is Kev-Lo hey Brother Love thanks so much for that picture of Mike and the sensations you know I never knew what they looked liked.yes they were very much a forgotten soul group.That's why I try to bring up these rare groups in my threads.I feel that rare soul was apart of us as well as the popular stuff and rare soul acts have to be reconized and should be mentioned on this great forum.I will be diging up more of these rare soul acts so stay tune.

They also recorded for Revue as well. The Revue singles are all fairly easy to find and worth picking up.

Best,

Mark
