Nu’Rons, The – I Can See The Love / Joy For Me & My Baby 45 (Soul Direction) 7″ Vinyl

“I Can See the Love” and “Joy for Me and My Baby” come from previously unreleased demo master tapes. By the time these tracks were recorded, the group had already released two promotional 45s: “All My Life/I’m A Loner” on the Nu-ron Label and “Disco Hustle/Can’t Do Enough Girl” on the Stage Art label. Soul Direction Records has now been given the privilege by Manny Campbell and The Nu’Rons to release these tracks on vinyl. Today,

The Nu’Rons were a family group made up of two sets of brothers and cousins: brothers Daryl and Raymond Gibson, along with Otho and Charles Bateman. All of them were born and raised in Salem, New Jersey. They began singing together at the ages of ten and eleven, eventually adding a fifth member, their brother Rudolph Gibson, to form a group called The Gospel 5. As teenagers, they decided to cross over to secular music. Known for their energetic dance routines, they adopted the name “The Nu’Rons,” inspired by the word “neuron,” which refers to a cell that transmits nerve impulses.
The Nu’Rons continue to work and record as a trio, following the passing of Raymond Gibson. Group Members: Daryl Howard Gibson (aka “The Loner”) Raymond Gibson (aka “The Nasty Man”) Passed away in 2005 Otho Bateman (aka “O.B.”) Charles Bateman (aka “Biggy Rat”) Rudolph Gibson (Pre Nu’Rons) Charles Bateman (OB’s brother and cousin to Raymond/ Daryl) passed away in 2022.
Thank you to everyone who has and continue to support the label. – Soul Direction Records Ltd.
