Sitting In The Park Radiants Interview

[boba]

Today on my radio show I interviewed two members of legendary Chicago soul group the Radiants, the original lead singer Maurice McAlister and member Wallace Sampson, the only singer who was a member of every lineup of the group. I usually write up a bio of the group but it was a great interview and it's worth listening to Maurice and Wallace tell all the stories of all their songs, check it out at the bottom of my interviews page at:

Hi Bob!

Very much enjoyed the interview with the Radiants, particularly the part where they told about their very first appearance at the Apollo theatre and all the difficulties they encountered being a new and inexperienced act at the time.

"Voice Your Choice" has always been one of my alltime soul favourites, sitting nicely alongside many other Chess classics.

Regards,

Melismo
