Lee ‘Shot’ Williams – Hello Baby / Harold Burrage – Please Love Me 45 (Kent) 7″ Vinyl

Richard Stamz was a colourful Chicago DJ and TV host who ventured into the record business in the early 60s with his Foxy and Paso labels. His main artist and right-hand man was Harold Burrage, whose ‘Please Love Me’ was the original of the Monk Higgins song that became a local R&B hit for Betty Everett three years later. Lee “Shot” Williams’ ‘Hello Baby’ is low-down dirty R&B at its best. – Ace Records
