60s MEMPHIS NORTHERN SOUL/R&B/MOD
ORIGINAL U.S. ISSUE
SPELLED WRONG, BUT VERY SIMILAR TO THE DANNY WHITE VERSION
BORN ROGER LEE CRATON IN 1939, THIS SINGER WAS RENOWNED FOR HAVING A VOCAL DELIVERY THAT WAS VERY LIKE THAT OF MARVIN GAYE (AS WAS THAT OF J.J. BARNES; AFTER D-TOWN, LEE WENT TO ANOTHER MIKE HANKS-OWNED LABEL - WHEELSVILLE; HIS SECOND SINGLE FOR THE DETROIT IMPRINT WAS ACTUALLY RECORDED DOWN IN MEMPHIS, WITH THE TOP SIDE BEING A VERSION OF THE DON BRYANT COMPOSITION, "CRACKED UP OVER YOU" - FAMOUSLY DONE BY DANNY WHITE IN THE SAME YEAR; OPINION IS DIVIDED ON WHICH IS THE BEST VERSION - BOTH ARE SUPERB; ALTHOUGH COPIES WITH THE CORRECTLY-SPELLED TITLE CAN BE FOUND, THE SINGLE IS MORE OFTEN SEEN WITH THE MISTAKE ("CRAKED" INSTEAD OF "CRACKED"); LEE CUT THREE 45s FOR WHEELSVILLE, AND THEY ALL HAVE THE SAME FLIP; FORTUNATELY, "HOW ARE YOU FIXED FOR LOVE" IS EVERY BIT AS GOOD A STOMPER AS IT'S PARTNER
