BILLY WARD & DOMINOES R&B EP-212 - "SIXTY MINUTE MAN/ DO SOMETHING FOR ME" b/w "HAVE MERCY BABY/ DON'T LEAVE ME THIS WAY" - FEDERAL 7" 45 - 1957 NM
This is a near mint copy of this original recording released in 1957. Very rare pressing especially in this condition.
Billy Ward and his Dominoes were an African-American R&B vocal group. One of the most successful R&B groups of the early 1950s, the Dominoes helped launch the singing careers of two notable members, Clyde McPhatter and Jackie Wilson. They were inducted into the Vocal Group Hall of Fame in 2006.
The group released "Sixty Minute Man", which reached #1 on the R&B chart in May 1951 and stayed there for 14 weeks, and crossed over to the pop charts, reaching #17. It was an important record in several respects—it crossed the boundaries between gospel singing and blues, its lyrics pushed the limits of what was deemed acceptable, and it appealed to many white as well as black listeners. In later years, it became a contender for the title of "the first rock and roll record".
